For all the Hondurans out here; where can I get snacks, chips, and/or candy in NYC?

I’m making a surprise gift my friend’s birthday. They are from Honduras and I want to get them candy from their country. I don’t know where to look or what to get. So, any recommendations would be great! Thank you in advance ~~~

Is this a common way that people break the ice after no contact?

There’s a guy (34M) that I’m (26F) on and off with, and I’ve noticed a pattern that I find kind of odd.

Whenever we stop talking for a bit, he’ll randomly send me a sexual meme or an unsolicited dick pic as a way to restart the conversation and our relationship. When we are actively talking, he sends them occasionally too, but it especially happens after periods of no contact.

I’m not necessarily uncomfortable with it, but I do think it’s a strange way to reconnect with someone. I guess I don’t fully understand what the thought process is behind it.

Have anyone experienced this? If so, how did you interpret it and/or why did you do it?

AIO or is this a common perspective on parenting?

I had a conversation with this man, and the topic of children and parenthood came up. He said that if he got a woman pregnant, he would just co-parent and become more involved in the child’s life once they reached around 8, 9, or 10 years old.

I was kind of confused because, to me, it sounded like he didn’t want to be involved in the child’s early years and would just show up “when it’s time.” So, I asked him for some clarification.

He explained that he would want the mother to take the lead and “give the children empathy”, and then once they reached the “right age,” he would step in and take over “to give them discipline” because he knew how he was as a kid.

I was still confused, but okay.

Obviously, we didn’t keep in touch, but what he said really stuck with me.

I’m just wondering if any y’all agree/disagree with, understand where he might have been coming from, or AIO about his take on parenting?
