Food: Angus Barn, Winston’s. A lot of famous chefs around RDU. Google it. Lot’s of choices for food and bars downtown. Catch a concert at Walnut Creek. Head to the beach, Pinehurst for golf, or tour the Biltmore in the mountains for NC weekend trips.

For what? Dinner? Weekend? Living?

@C1, no. There for an SAP certification training course.

OP, are you in Raleigh or Durham? How many days?

Durham for 12 days

If you venture to Raleigh: concert at Redhat, the Ritz, or Walnut Creek; drinks at Raleigh Beer Garden, Raleigh Times, Whiskey Kitchen; dinner at Bida Manda, the Pit, or Trophy; brunch at Humble Pie or Flying Biscuit; night out at Coglins, Lucky Bs; late night food at Armadillo!!!

No A1, no Shooters. OP isn't a desperate undergrad or Fuqua student that's living out their mid-life crisis.

@PwC1 - actually...

Anyone from Embark able to tell me about some benefits you have. Like how long is Paternity leave and do you have to be with the firm for a year to use it? Also what health insurance do you have? I saw that Embark fully pays premiums but if it’s a junk insurance company then that’s not so great haha.
Also how often are you traveling / in office? Thanks!

My husband does not show affection openly and is quite lazy in bed, and I thought I could deal with it because I love him, but it’s really really beginning to annoy me. For example, he refuses to do any foreplay and basically asks that I get on top of him most of the time when we have have sex- if I push him to do anything else he basically just refuses to have sex at all as some sort of ‘protest’. I am finding myself fantasising about an affair more and more
