Then I'm sure they're still truly wonderful people who will probably find great happiness with someone else.

I'm pretty sure ohpll is more than just a "picky eater." I saw a TLC type show once about people who will only eat bread and cheese. It's like, a whole disordered eating thing.* She won't be convinced. Just look at how defensive and ALL CAPS she is in response to your very measured comments.

Trust me. Since you brought it up, no one is jealous of your little cheesy carb body. I sincerely hope your terrible diet doesn't catch up with you, but I wouldn't bet on it. But you do you. If you were my loved one I would be concerned, but I don't care about you beyond general feelings of humanitarian…

When people talk to you about things, they usually expect feedback. When you say "isn't that cute?" And I say no, It's not because I'm in charge of your life. It's because you shared an opinion about something in your life with me and asked for feedback and I gave it to you. Your response to this is literally so…

I don't get this attitude that vegetables are "yucky", there are so many vegetables out there that even if you don't like one kind, there's something else you probably will like. I also firmly believe there are people who don't like vegetables because they've only has them prepared terribly. My MIL cannot cook a…

Yes! Eating like a chicken-nuggets only toddler is not only a red flag for inflexibility and entitlement, but it is a HUGE TURN OFF for me. If I have to try to coax them to try new things, I feel like their mom and every sexual feeling will vanish in a puff of resentful smoke.

If this co-worker is constantly talking about how her husband doesn't eat vegetables as if it's endearing, then she is expecting WineCritic to understand her POV. To be fair, WineCritic could be more tactful but seriously, I don't understand her either. I also have friends who did this for their SOs, I love them but…

I don't have a lot of dealbreakers...but if onions and garlic aren't cherished parts of your world, bye-bye.

That sounds disgustingly reasonable and rational. And exactly like what my parents have done for almost 40 years. I mean, my partner is vegetarian and I'm not. I can't imagine looking at his plate in frustration and questioning our relationship because — goddamnit — his plate does not exactly match my own and that's…

A friend told me something that totally changed my dating life and that was: when you're deciding whether or not someone is the right person to spend your life with there are literally no shallow issues. Don't like your significant other's eating habit? Deal with it or break it off, but don't pretend like it doesn't…

I see this almost less of a shared interest thing and more of a shared value thing. If you don't want to adapt to new things, take care of yourself (I'm gonna stick by a varied and homemade-rather-than-processed diet being healthier despite the fact my from-scratch meal last night was shrimp alfredo) , engage in…

Everyone I've ever met who ate like a toddler also behaved like a toddler in many ways. I couldn't spend my life with someone who is set in their ways and afraid of new experiences.

I couldn't marry someone with completely different eating patterns since we'd be eating together every day and raising kids together - I'd never want to have to explain why daddy doesn't have to eat green beans but Jr. does.

Nope. Sorry. I could not get past someone eating only kid foods. Its one thing to not like something but to limit your options to places you would take your kid cousin would not fly with me. I think being an adult picky eater also shows an unwillingness to adapt to change and its a pretty clear indicator that you're…

This reeks of Tom Haverford's Entertainment 720 style lavishness.

Precisely. My little cousin got in a bunch of trouble once because her parents found out she'd been watching porn. All I could think was that she was 12, curious about her body, and wanted to know more. Such a missed opportunity to explain why porn isn't appropriate for her just yet, but that there are other sources…

Eh. If you think about it, a doll might actually be the BEST way to introduce children to the idea of the different anatomies. Kids learn a lot during playtime and this is a good way for them to learn about the different names of body parts etc, without getting caught ogling some other kid's junk on the playground out…

i feel bad for guys, esp straight guys who are too uptight to know and enjoy the pleasure

We're driving in the car and of course I text and drive

You guys should do a story on unpaid college athletes suffering career-ending injuries, and what sort of insurance or compensation some might be lucky enough to receive if any. Not saying this is a career-ender, but I'm curious about this as whenever I argue for college athletes to go pro ASAP someone always throws…
