Went to my usual food spot for lunch today that’s run by a lovely couple that always get along quite well. There was an issue with the card machine not working, and the lady not understanding correctly which resulted in a full blown argument between the couple in front of customers where some really disrespectful things were exchanged. The man was really condescending to her and I could really feel her pain.

I Ended up feeling really tense and with butterflies in my stomach. It hurt so much to see such a nice couple that I get along with hurt each other so badly. I can’t help but think there must’ve been some other issues going on in the background that led to this sort of reaction for them. I wanted to intervene and diffuse the situation but it also didn’t feel like my place to.
