THIS time I did not "reject" my Latin roots schooling and I solved your clue!
A fun clue BTW. (And I'm not just saying that because I solved it.)

After three years, when we broke up, she returned exactly $100.
I lost interest in that relationship.
Now I'm just left a loan.

You didn't establish a bond, that's why.

Participles are cheap, but they are a thing of the past.

She was a cheapskate; you should have taken that into account.

Was she a cheap lesson?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

So 40 years of cooking, and I discover this (maybe other people have too) - slice the onion on a plate in the sink with a gently running stream of water streaming over the onion. Prevents all that stray spray of slicing / dicing / chopping. The stream of water, not the plate.

I use the "chef way" (cut in half, peel, then cut the halves: 7 Ways To Cut Onions Like A Pro Chef | Bon Appétit - YouTube[^]) as apparently leaving the root part attached means that methionine and cystine aren;t released from the onion, which is converted by the lacrimal ducts into sulphuric acid which causes the tears.
It works for me, I haven't had any tears in years and I regularly fill a slow cooker with finely chopped onions for caramelisation*. That's finely dicing about 8lbs of onion at a time, I guess?
* The end result after eight hours - which is pretty tiny - gets vacuum packed in small portions and frozen, then used for soups, stews, and onion mayo as needed.

I must try this.
My eyes hurt like hell when cutting onions.
So much that I sometimes even need two sessions to cut a single onion.
The pain is simply unbearable and I have to go outside until I can keep my eyes open again.

Wear glasses of any kind for a bit of help. Even swimming goggles.

I'll have to try that! And thanks for the science lesson why onions cause tears.

I found that through years of rubbing chopped onions directly into my eyes I've developed an immunity.
Not just to onions mind you - to crying at all.
The pain apparently made me emotionally dead inside.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.
