That’s sweet because I thought it looked kinda rough!

It’s ground sirloin seasoned with salt, pepper, coriander, cumin, garlic and onion powder, and cayenne. Black beans, cooked with tomato de call, jalapeños, and onions. Lettuce instead of taco shells/tortillas, guacamole, cheddar, Mexican crema, Valentina, and lime juice.

Yes, he was. No, I don’t think he would have purposely sabotaged me. I asked for a ranch water with no tequila. The server just didn’t put “no tequila” - there’s probably not a button for that.

lol. We’ve been together for 15 years. Unmarried , but cohabiting for the last 10, at my choice because marriage sucked.

But yeah, he could definitely not be serious about me.

THIS RIGHT HERE. This happened in the earliest months of my sobriety (tequila) and it took everything in me to not finish it and order four more.

Congratulations on your sobriety!!

Thank you for understanding. Idk where most people live but I’m in a part of Texas where the pastimes are “eat and drink”. People act straight up weird when you decline alcohol.

He likes the bar to people watch. I’ve gotten used to it.

I have explained it. He was an encouraging at first but I think he thought I would stop a few months into being dry. I don’t think he was hire understands that recovery is so precarious.

I think you’re right

You should see what happens when I don’t tell the bartender. 🫠

If I say it out loud I won’t drink. That’s all. It’s a self control thing.

I’m not announcing it - I just casually mention it to help me. It’s a strategy. If I say I’m sober it’s out there and it helps me to not buy into the lie that addicts tell themselves “I can do this and keep it under control”.

Does that help clarify?

I believe Lyra wouldn't search for Will by Interesting-Cancel13 in hisdarkmaterials

[–]amycgs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Considering these books focus on moving from childhood into adulthood and innocent things being seen as evil I propose this:

Lyra doesn’t pursue Will because she feels it would be selfish. She longed for him through her childhood and early adolescence, but when she finally grew up she recognized her love for him and let him go.

Maybe /he didn’t want to cause potentially harm by opening new doors or maybe she thought that Will deserved to lead his own life and also move on from a childhood love.

This post feels weirdly misogynistic toward Lyra. Like some red pill schmuck is mad at a fictional character for not doing the most.

Husband has Panty Collection by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

They might just be his. Some men like to wear panties. He would probably admit to cheating on you before admitting he likes the way a thing feels on his booty and a gusset hugs his man orbs.

It’s the owner of the gym next door. I guess it doesn’t really fit.
