My SO and I are having problems. We are not sleeping together but we are co-habitating at her place. She cries and sobs (quietly) whenever I say I can leave. Yesterday she wanted me to leave. As soon as I was ready she changed her mind and wants me to stay for a month or more. Essentially until the lockdown has ended.

This morning we have a bit of a breakthrough and we are talking normally instead of looking distant and cool all the time.

She leaves the door open when she is getting dressed. I see her topless she stops dressing and looks at me for a minute. She lets me look. She changes later with her door open again. No look this time just casual like before we had our problem.

Then she starts getting dressed to go out. She plays cards all afternoon. She usually dresses a bit sleazy for that which is one of our issues. She likes to give the boys a downblouse show during the game. Occasionally she has meetings with clients she dresses smartly for those.

But this time she wears a sheer white top with a black bra and long black pants. Takes a little longer to put on her makeup. Takes some time selecting a perfume rather than the usual one.
I ask her if she's going on a date. She says she's meeting a client and hopes to make a sale.

She is beingI have never seen her take such care in choosing a perfume before or wear a sheer top to a client meeting. She sells custom made women's clothing.

Is she lying or not?

And if she is then what's with the boob show?

I was thinking of having "Devotion to Evil" as a drawback mechanic on some of the cards in my card game. If the player wants the extra power of the card, they hae to sell their soul to the devil. As their devotion to Evil grows, they must pass a "Test of Faith" to stay alive. If Devotion to Evil is greater than a roll of a twelve sided die, they instantly lose the game.

I have decided to make the three primary factions "Human", "Chaos", and "Time", each has good and evil elements. "Mind, body, and spirit" was too hokey or something. I figure I can put "Unfair" cards in the game if I punish the player for using them by giving them "Devotion to Evil" and Evil sounding names.
