Gemini guessed that this is “Gone Home” by Sam Greenbriar. No idea if that’s correct but it seems plausible.

I’m someone who grew up near the Canadian border in the northeast and I now live in the southwest. This speaks to me… I have got used to authentic Mexican food now but for the first couple years everything hurt to eat. It was just so good that you push through to keep eating it!
Jumping in, I also have a lot of BPD experience (example, a marriage of well over 10 years).
This is very BPD-adjacent. I’m not saying OP’s gf has it per se, because there is no way we can know from here, but this is definitely on brand.
If you read between the lines, the social conversation could written as this:
“Heading home, I need support”
“I’ll support”
<Doesn’t support>
<She feels abandoned, fight or flight kicks in and it turns her attachment-avoidant, results in silent treatment>
<OP gives space, which is interpreted as further abandonment>
<OPGF can’t take it anymore, and asks questions that feel like they’re out of left field because in fight-or-flight kicks in, clear thought is nearly impossible>
<OP finally gives reassurance that he didn’t abandon her>
<Normalcy continues>

Yeah I don’t blame you
There’s two on eBay right now, and one of them has a signed letter from the author.
I don’t think that’s totally accurate. I think it’s more that they don’t know how a mask works, and they think that you’re deliberately being fake to fit in.
If masking wasn’t a thing, it would probably be decent advice. Problem is 99% of us have no idea we’re masking until way later, if ever.
I wonder if this comic was the inspiration for Ripper Roo in Crash Bandicoot…
Fair play! I don’t like the bitter peppers like Serranos… any advice? I don’t mind more heat if it tastes good but I can’t help but wonder if I’m doing something wrong.
And balut… yeah I’m good on that, thanks.
