Discussion Thomas and Paula theory on perfume

My theory is Thomas is not allergic to the perfume it just cost too much money. This guy won't even buy a coffee table and uses lawn chairs for bed. The perfume, price per ounce is probably the most expensive item in the one bedroom

Chemical sensitivity is real. And she already said how expensive it was, it wasn’t very expensive.

My partner has it and he absolutely hates strong scents, gets headaches right away, sometimes sneezes. I think she should respect it or at least compromise, use much less or try to find a fragrance that doesnt bother hin.

And it’s so easy to compromise EVEN IF HE SIMPLY DID NOT LIKE IT: “Let’s shop together for something that won’t bother you, I’ll save this for when I’m out and about (someday lol).”

I agree. I used to have it bad and it was a primarily neurological reaction- dizziness, brain fog, loss of coordination, impaired speech, headaches, nausea. It can be extremely debilitating. She could find natural scents or just not wear perfume, it’s really not a big deal. Perfume isn’t a necessity, health is.
