Hi all! I just moved to Fayetteville from New Mexico! I was wondering if there are any places in town that sell Mexican/Latin ingredients. This is the style of food I cook the most, and I have found the offerings at Publix and Food Lion to be lacking. Any good Mexican markets or carnicerias here in Fayetteville, or will I have to drive to Raleigh for such a thing?
Thank you!
I was at a movie with a friend tonight and the woman next to us was on her phone for half of the movie. We asked her (politely) to stop, and she cussed us out and called my friend a bitch. I went out and got the manager, who was nice and gave us some movie passes, but I wish the whole thing could have been avoided in the first place. I feel like this happens so often now. I don't understand how people can be so rude and inconsiderate to everyone around them. Quite frankly, if you can't sit for two hours without looking at your phone, there's something wrong with you. I wish Cinemark would do more to prevent this. Even if they just aired a PSA telling people to turn their phones off, it would go a long way.
Hi all, I'm new to this subreddit, but I've lived with diagnosed OCD for about 15 years. It's gone through ups and downs, but over the last 6 months or so I've been obsessing over whether my partner is angry at me.
My partner went through a very stressful life event right before the holidays, and it led to a misunderstanding between us. We worked things out, but I kept obsessing over my partner being mad at me, even after they told me things are fine. We are currently long distance, but planning on moving in together. I noticed that my partner was a lot more withdrawn than usual, but I was trying not to bother them too much about it because I know it was probably because of stress from the event, and I know I'm not supposed to ask for reassurance for OCD things.
Well, I caved in last night and finally broke down over it. I told my partner that I feel like there has been some distance between us and asked if they are still mad at me. They confirmed that it's the life stuff going on that has been stressing them out and that they didn't realize they were acting distant.
I feel so guilty now for even asking about that. My partner has been going through some tough times (things in their house keep breaking, and a family member got diagnosed with a chronic illness - family member is stable now and doing well, but of course they are still worried) and I feel like I'm just selfishly focused on my needs and my insecurities. I've been doing my best to support them through all this by sending them doordash meals when they're too tired to cook and trying to keep them company when they're sad, but I feel like I should be doing more. My partner truly loves me and sets aside time every week to spend with me, and I feel so ungrateful for not appreciating it enough.
I don't think they're upset at me, but I'm not sure how to move on now. I had a moment of weakness acting incredibly selfish, and I feel like I need to make up for it and prove that I can be a better partner than I've been for the past few months.
What can I do to move on, and to not fall back into the trap of obsessing over our relationship?
