I'm coming to this super-late, but I am so irrationally angry at the idea that he would take your leftovers. Just...fuck that guy. I cannot believe the visceral response I am having to this.

I think if you bought an ingredient to make a specific thing, that ingredient is off limits until you made the thing you bought it for. Same thing as if you made something to bring to a party, if there are left overs from the party those are ok to eat, but before the party it's off limits. Also if you say "please…

In neither a mall person nor someone who normally craves attention from others, but when my wife was finishing her thesis I would take my twin toddler daughters and young son to the mall just to get us out of the househouse so she could write. Ovaries would pop like fireworks as we walked down the halls.

He sounds like he didn't respect boundaries and was gaslighting you. Fuck him. I'm glad you're out of that.

I recently lived with an alcoholic who would eat my leftovers (from home-cooked meals) that I had put into the fridge for the next day. Annoyingly, he didn't even eat them properly, he'd come home drunk at 3am, like, pick all the best bits out and then leave the remainder in the container in his room for several…

Ha. I was kind of seeing this guy and on our last date I my interest had faded significantly and I was thinking I would probably end things soon, but didn't really want to commit to the break up yet, so I just made up an excuse to go home after. (I had been staying at his place after dates prior to this.) Anyways I…

Meow.

The leftovers thing sounds reasonable—they're YOUR leftovers, he should at least ask before taking them. The ingredient thing is annoying, but unless he KNEW beforehand that you needed that ingredient for your recipe, his behaviour there seems to me to fall more under the 'annoying stuff that happens sometimes'…

He ate your leftovers??? Oh hell no. Like absolutely not allowed.

No. Restaurant leftovers ALWAYS belong to the person who originally had them on their plate. That's just common sense and I have a feeling he was totally using "territorial" to guilt you into not feeling bad about what he knew was a dick move. Also, if youve purchased things for a specific meal and he was informed…

I think you sound reasonable in those situations and he sounds like an ass.

They are the most dudebro of authors, IMHO

I am plenty aware of this, thanks. Unfortunately I am on my phone and its kind of hard to see my writing and sometimes I write quickly and make mistakes.

Oh God, this gives me terrible flashbacks. I once went on some internet date with a guy who insisted we go to an amusement park on our first date. I repeatedly told him I'd rather just meet for coffee, but he kept talking about how much fun we'd have and how it'd be an adventure. I relented. This was a mistake.

In defense of the beard haters: I have really sensitive skin and I will get acne around my mouth whenever we kiss. So if you're cool with your girlfriend covered in painful acne, then I'm cool with the beard? Yeah, it just isn't meant to be...

I think there's a big difference between getting a loan from you parents and being 35 and still getting regular "allowance" money from them every week.

I met my husband just after he'd decided to "experiment" with shaving off his beard, and it has never made a comeback. Some of his friends still act like I broke up the Beatles.

HAHAHAH, #byefelipe!

"You know I need to hear you say..."I'm coming"..to get off baby why don't you ever say it?" he said this with a with a straight face while he went through his 3 position sex-rumba....it was really sad on reflection as besides my utilities all I could think about was, "Why are you still letting this creep fuck you?"

This is just a place for OKCupid horror stories, right? I'm in!
