Nearly wrecked my marriage to refuse both. Thanks to Jesus I was able to save her and my marriage. Divorce was filed. It was bad. But it all passed. Now she’s grateful that I didn’t let her do it. She had a lot of pressure from work—a very large software co. Acquiring certain materials and information donned online (ahem) eased much pressure (we’re in a deep blue part of the country).
Eventually I compromised with her on masks: I would only wear it if she were with me and if we were politely asked and only if they insisted after I ignored them or refused it once. Worked out well enough.
