How do I help my boyfriend expand his horizons in terms of food? It's gotten bloody embarrassing. He likes well done steak, overcooked eggs (like brown omelettes) overdone pasta, refuses to drink wine and he thinks that putting a frozen meal and adding hot sauce into it is cooking.
Last week we went out for our anniversary and he ordered well done steak in a nice restaurant. He asked for fries even though it was not on the menu and the waiter said they don't have those so he had garlic whipped potatoes and he ordered soda. He has the taste buds of a child but we're both 28.
if he's happy about his choices in food, why do you care?
>>7550201
Wow, way to be judgmental, I'm sure your relationship is healthy
>>7550210
Because it's embarrassing and we're adults. If some friends are having a get together and they are having wine he will ask for coca cola.
>>7550228
why is it embarrassing to have personal preferences that don't align with your own?
>>7550201
Condition him to like "adult" foods.
>>7550228
He may eat like a child, but you act like one. Who gets embarrassed over silly things like that?
>>7550229
Because it looks like I am dating a child.
>>7550235
Culinary pleb detected. She does have a point. People who no repertoire should be put into camps where they learn to appreciate good culture and cuisine.
Why is it women feel they need to change a man to fit their own idea of what they should be?
Your boyfriend might have shit taste in food, but he's got even shitter taste in bitches.
Leave the poor son of a bitch alone.
>>7550241
Well that's perfectly fine then, because it looks like he's dating a child too.
>>7550201
Nothing wrong with mashed potatoes
>>7550201
ever cheated on him?
>>7550241
Is he the type to reject food that you make? If not cook for him. Calling him a child or being passive aggressive will hurt you guys in the long run.
>>7550292
Why?
>>7550247
>>7550279
>Why does her sex have to do with anything?
Because you don't see guys going around trying to shape bitches into someone else, it's always women who do it. Guys are content with just fucking about going about their own business. Chicks want a blank slate they can mold into a slave wage that agrees with them 100% of the time and has to entertain them on a daily basis.
The fact that you even needed to ask that question means you're a chick, because a guy would never ask something so fucking dumb.
>>7550293
Yes he is. I once made him a steak dinner (medium steak, grilled veggies like asparagus, mushrooms, and mashed potatoes). He asked me to cook the steak until there was no pink left and he refused the veggies and just ate the potatoes.
>>7550299
I'm actually a guy and that is not true at all. I've seen plenty of guys try to mold their nice, vanilla girlfriends into being more sluttier and wild in the bedroom. Don't even try to make this a gender issues, fucking faggot. You are the male equivalent of a feminist and should be shot
>>7550297
just answer im curious
>>7550309
You're not a guy. You're a bitch pretending to be a guy to try and make a point, because bitches can't let things go and will try to undermind their opponent even if they know they're in the wrong.
Nice try.
>>7550313
Once. The first week we were dating I kissed another guy since things were not serious. But I told him right after and he forgave me.
>>7550305
You are just going to have to come to term with that. If that is a deal breaker, then good luck.
>>7550309
Yeah, Im not buying the whole "Im a guy thing"
>>7550319
No I am a guy. Want to see my penis? I'll leave my kik and send you a timestamp photo
>>7550201
Maybe you should just stop dating fags.
>>7550228
If he were an alcoholic, this would be perfectly acceptable. Just because he refuses wine - that's not a thing. That being said, he should absolutely order things on the menu at a restaurant.
>>7550330
Just post it then faggot.
I want /r9k/ and /pol/ to leave
>>7550201
>>7550336
blue board, I'd get banned. On kik I would though. By the way I'm straight, you're the one asking me to post my dick.
I don't see the problem here, if anything his poorly developed taste in food is going to save you money over time. I honestly kind of wish I hadn't become a "foodie" cause shit's expensive
>>7550348
Take the three day ban. It's not like your contributing anything worth value to the thread anyway, nigger.
>>7550330
>be girl
>claim I am guy on 4chan

verified for manipulative femanon
>>7550299
All of this (and related posts ITT) is untrue. We CONSTANTLY have threads on this board where anon starts off with "My GF likes shit tier food, what do?" And we all always tell him to get a better GF or make that bitch like it. Absolutely no difference here. Femanon doesn't want a boyfriend with shit tier tastes. I see no foul play here. At least none that we do not already welcome on this board.
As for you OP, just do your best to talk to him (like an adult) and get him eating delicious good food
>>7550353
Racist, illiterate, hates women and you're dumb.
>>7550235
normal, well-adjusted adults.
normal, well-adjusted adults who expect that other adults can occasionally cease their childlike behavior in a setting that calls for something more upscale.
i don't need a collared shirt to hang out in, but i wear one to work. i don't wear a suit but a few times a year, because i'm at an event that calls for something fancier than simply a decent shirt.
i, and other normal, well-adjusted adults go to a good restaurant and don't ask for that drink of iced tea or soda or orange juice that we might otherwise get if we're eating lunch at the local joint because that's not what you should be ordering there. places like those put a significant amount of thought and time (and product placement) to make better drinks that also serve to compliment the meal.
op's sugar-water chugging bf is an embarrassment to adults because he's an adult acting like a child.
>>7550201
if he's objecting to alcohol on moral grounds, let that go. if it's a taste thing, which it sounds like it is, start him out on things that are typically considered girly drinks. growing up, i hated the standard piss beer (murrican here) and assumed that most beer and alcohol were by extension pretty awful and just didn't drink it. a friend introduced me to cocktails, including an amaretto sour and i was like "hey, this is a fruit juice. i'll take 7!" and kept expanding my horizons into other cocktails, non shit beer, and non shit wines.
that said, if that's the only really bad thing about your relationship with him, and he refuses to change, just forget it and let that shit go. someone's poor taste in food is no reason to end an otherwise nice relationship
>>7550359
That's pretty much all true, but I'm not the one lying about being a man. Atleast I can admit the truth.
>>7550366
I'm not a woman, I'm just a guy who is not a total pleb when it comes to food. I mean, ordering soda in a 5 star restaurant? Give me a break. I'm sorry you're so offended that someone insulted your ideal meal. Fuck off back to /pol/
>>7550201
ITT: Whining over the fact that OPs lover likes different foods that don't align with what is considered "good" for arbitrary reasons.
>>7550360
normal, well adjusted adults don't care about the personal preferences of other people when it doesn't affect them in any way
you don't sound well adjusted. you sound like you have a superiority complex, based on your desire to belittle somebody over something so trivial
>>7550381
This. If the nigga wants a coke let him have a fucking coke. Jesus.
>>7550375
Then /r9k/, /b/, some shitty anime board, just fuck off. I hate feminists and their male equivalents. Just face it, you're angry because you have pleb tastes, are probably female repellent and get rejected.
>>7550201
I'm sorry, he has shit taste, I'm afraid it's terminal and incurable. Ditch him and take someone else that isn't such a basic babby bitch about food
>>7550356
You're obsessed and a total faggot.
>>7550386
BUT THEN HE IS A LITERAL MANCHILD BECAUSE HE ISN'T ORDERING RED WIN AND UNCOOKED STEAKS THAT COST $150 REEEEEEEE FUCKING MANCHILDREN REEEEEEEEEE I'M A MATURE ADULT REEEEEEEEE
>>7550381
yea, they kinda do when that person is their significant other. and yea, 4chan definitely is good reinforcement that whatever little things might be wrong in my life, it most certainly could be a lot worse.
case in point, this thread.
OP Sounds really controlling.
A persons food preferences are up to them, not for their partner to judge and attempt to change.
Ontop of that, OP attempts to justify attempting to force these changes by elaboring how annoyed theor partners tastes makes them, as if that matters.
2/10 would not date.
>>7550387
I'm married with 3 kids. I won't call it rejection. I like my steaks rare, and my beer micro brewed. I'm saying she needs to let her boyfriend eat how he fucking wants to because it doesn't really mater to her. I love your rage though. Please keep it coming.
>>7550397
>I browse 4chan, because it reinforces my feelings that I am better than all of you
thanks for validating my hypothesis
>>7550405
nah, he is just has mad confirmation bias due to his misogynistic worldview
>>7550395
Such a self-defeating way of making that argument.
>>7550399
i wouldn't be able to put up with that shit.. having varied tastes and the willingness top try new things are very important to me in a partner.
total dealbreaker if they lack those things.
>>7550395
My sides are gone
>>7550401
>micro brewed
>controlling
>child-like
ugh
>>7550201
Stop dating below your class level. Sure, guys beneath you seem hot because they're all rugged and stupid until you have to deal with the reality of actually dating them. Then you realize what a mistake it is to get involved with them.
>>7550450
>instead, you should date classy gentlesirs like m'self
*tip*
>>7550404
s'ok bud, i'm perfectly alright with knowing i'm better than most of you peons. cuz that's what you are. sucks to hear, but you're people who lack redeeming qualities. glad you've figured out that greentext bit on your own.
the next part is to see if you can redeem yourself by adjusting to your surroundings, rather than expecting your surroundings to conform to your limited experience. do you expand your small bubble, or continue to live life as a second-class citizen who - in the case of op's bf - will never be taken seriously?
this is obviously not to say you have to conform to everything - individuality is part of carving one's path in life. but behaving like a child in an adult setting is something that will quite literally harm one's ability to interact and network with people who can do things like advance your career and otherwise improve your life. if op's bf never breaks out of this shell, anyone who interacts with him on this level will think slightly less of him for the rest of his days.
now he can accept that and perhaps work doubly hard in other areas to overcome that - this relationship for instance - or he (and probably you, too) can grasp that by fixing this character flaw, it will eliminate that need to be stellar in other aspects.
>>7550464
>>7550460
Hey I had to learn that lesson when I dated beneath myself. Dealing with odd prejudices when going out was insufferable. It's easy to pretend class isn't so much of a thing until you're dealing with it romantically. Then you realize it's still a thing.
>>7550464
>trying this hard to conceal your insecurities
you don't have to prove yourself to me, anon. after all I am just another "peon" from 4chan, sorry I hurt your feelings
>>7550201
I'm with the others who have said your boyfriend just has shit taste. If it's really too much of a problem, cut him loose, otherwise, learn o love him for all his flas and foibles, because you aren't going to change him if he's already going to fancy restaurants and trying to order fries.
>>7550299
>Because you don't see guys going around trying to shape bitches into someone else
Now that is some grade-a bullshit right there.
>>7550201
Have you actually tried to bring it up with him? Not gonna lie, but based on this thread you kind of sound like a passive-aggressive and incredibly pretentious cunt.
That being said, yeah, I guess it might be somewhat embarrassing that he doesn't enjoy finer foods in certain situations. Chances are he doesn't even want to go to the expensive places you do.
Him not liking wine isn't a problem. Not liking wine is pretty damn normal to be honest. I'd take a nice beer over wine any day. Does he not drink in general? Because that's fine too.
If he REALLY wants to eat his steak a certain way and order a coke, he should. If you're too much of a child to cope with that, you're relationship is shit anyways.
Unless you're hot/rich/both he should get away from you while he can imo.
>>7550479
it's perfectly ok to me if you want to actively make your own life harder. i'm simply explaining to you what you're doing and how it will effect you. the choice to make a change is your own - and quite honestly, if you don't, my life is that small amount easier, as people like yourself who make social faux pas make those that don't look better by comparison.
kind of like when i was younger and used to occasionally meet gaming people i only knew online irl for the first time... "you're so... normal!" was the compliment. i'm not some super-end-of-the-spectrum body type. i was never covered in acne. i played sports.
i don't go through life consciously trying to stack the deck in my favor at every possible turn. being a person with broad interests means a small amount happens organically. because i'm a well-adjusted adult (who for some reason keeps conversing with a troll on a senegalese necklace-appreciation website, but we can't all be perfect), you increase your odds to have better social interactions. having some culture, a willingness to experiment and knowledge of others are things that will help you through life. a lack will hinder you. it really is that simple.
>>7550548

>posting this on /ck/ - Picky Eaters and Fast Food
lol
>>7550548
woah that hit a little too close to home huh? I told you you don't need to "prove" that you're normal to me, I already know you're not
>>7550574
Nobody claimed that. Guys who cheat are sluts, and so is OP
>>7550556
Not really. I like my steaks medium-rare, and finer foods and whatnot. The only thing that resonates is I don't care much for wine.
I just don't thinks there's any good reason to try to enforce my own tastes on other people.
If she's flustered enough about something petty like his lack of interest in high quality food to bitch about it, chances are they have a shit relationship.
>>7550589
It's totally reasonable to be fed up with a manchild who refuses to eat green vegetables.
>>7550325
Fucking whore
>>7550357
Shut the fuck up you soulless manipulative roastie. I know the game you play well.
>>7550580
not particularly. i'm actually enjoying imparting wisdom on the uneducated/trolls tonight. whether you want to take personal experience is up to you
>>7550601
If she's fed up with him over something like him liking cheap food, she probably has a lot of other issues with him, and should end it.
Oh boy, is this another episode of "/ck/ finds an abusive relationship"?
>be me
>dating a cheating skank, but forgive her cause she does nasty stuff in bed that would make her dead grandmother cry

>"woah what's the matter with you? nobody's forcing you to eat it"

What's wrong with not liking wine? Honestly curious.
I'd take a glass of bourbon (or any nice liquor) or a high abv beer over one any day.
>>7550610
I'm normie as fuck, and i also side with OP on this one as a complete lack of willingness to try new things and find enjoyment in the interests of an SO are two of the buggest turn offs i can think of, but you come off as a total loser. Tryhard, way too wordy, and condescending.
Like, who are you trying to convince here?
>>7550624
probably nothing. if you asked if there was a nice scotch somewhere (and were in turn, willing to share some when the party is at your place), but then settled for the wine, that'd be socially acceptable.
declining and asking for soda is just childish (again, forebearing any allergies or silly, but acceptable moral/religious reasons for skipping alcohol).
>>7550357
This thread would've gone a lot better if you just left the genders out of it. You would've gotten the circlejerk of "ur gf is a dumb bitch, hit her and she will like ur food" shit you wanted. Instead you got a slap to the face, which is what you deserve. You knew he was a manbaby before, I'm not sure why it's such a problem now. Get your priorities sorted out dumb cunt.
>>7550634
Did OP mention if the bf doesn't drink in general, or just dislikes wine?
>>7550631
i'm not really trying to convince anyone. i doubt anyone's gonna read anything written here and actually change their life for the better. on the off-chance someone does decide to better their lives by broadening their horizons, great. i expect nothing to come from this however.
and yup, i'm being condescending as fuck to either a) trolls or b) ignorant people. ignorance is curable if they so choose. i'm willing to go along with the assumption that i'm not being baited and they genuinely don't know.
>>7550641
nope. that's a very important qualifying factor imo
>>7550610
>"not now, mom! I'm imparting my wisdom on my internet friends!"
>>7550646
Yup. Some people either just don't drink, or only drink very circumstantially. Getting mad about him turning down wine if he's not really into alcohol isn't cool.
>>7550644
Please continue, oh wise one.
>>7550652
sry brahski, my own apartment. thanks for projecting tho.
>>7550683
save it for future use
>>7550201
>>hes emberassing me in public.
I fucking hate basic eaters. but you are a god damn stupid slut. everything you bitched about is all about image, you fucking hate that he has the taste of the child not because you want the joy of experiancing new things with him and to have that energery and excitement when trying out a restaurant, but because you're such a fucking preppy bitch that it looks bad when he orders something like a 8 year old. you aren't bitching about how he's turning down the effort you are putting into cooking for him because you thrive on making creative, colorful and fun meals, you're doing it because you can't stop cringing at his eating habbits.
here's some advice. quite while you're ahead and break up. he'd obviously be better off without you. because you are offering nothing but contempt for the weird shit he does, even if it doesn't personally affect you. How do you think this is going to go down 5 years down the road? what weird shit do you do? Either offer him some kind of relationship incentive thats meaningful, like how much it means to you to explore new things together with a loved one, or shut the fuck up and stop bitching. You're always going to find something to complain about.
god damn, fucking straight girls.
>>7550673
>maybe if I use words like "brahski" the anons on my burmese scarf knitting forum will think I'm normal and therefore better than them
>>7550694
you're not even trying anymore. take 5 and try again
if he likes well done steal, maybe get him to eat beef jerky or biltong then you can pretend you're dating a man.
Also maybe try pairings with craft beers, you don't just have to be a winefag to act refined.
>>7550691
This, without all the anger I guess.
If you dislike his eating choices because they embarrass you and make you worry about your image, not because you want to let him experience finer things in life for his own pleasure, there's something wrong in your relationship.
There are far worse habits that a SO could have to embarrass you than them liking simple and cheap food. Hell, some people never even have the money/chance to experience or worry about fine dining.
You two seem to have fundamental differences, that I'm guessing go beyond your cuisine choices.
>>7550201
>Refuses to drink wine
I am willing to bet you can't reliably pick out a $30 wine from a $200 wine
>>7550716
>Also maybe try pairings with craft beers, you don't just have to be a winefag to act refined.
this desu. or high shelf scotch/bourbon/whatever honestly. you don't have to like win to drink fancy.
>>7550722
do you REALLY think if this chucklfuck who won't even drink wine when out at a nice place will be able to stomach straight liquor?
lol, god damn. you're all so stupid.
>>7550717
I should make it clear since you linked me that I was not saying soley for his own pleasure, it should be something that matters to her in a relationship between the two of them. something that actuall affects her. For example. if they got kicked out of that restaurant by his behavior, it would be his fault. but everything so far is just something that made her squirm a bit. what are you going to do when you share the bathroom and have to deal with eachothers dhiarea scent? or when he sees you didn't shave today because its a fucking chore and you're wearing pants? what about when they hate that song you love? are they going to throw a hissy fit every time you sing it?
If small things like this bother the shit out of you you need to stop trying or find someone just as banal and whiny as you.
>>7550228
>wahhh he won't drink
Grow up.
>>7550718
Im willing to bet you cant
>>7550814
Never claimed I could. Wine elitism is a farce.
>>7550247
Jesus... I just got back from bandaging the cuts from all that edge.
If someone is healthy, enjoys their food, and as long as they aren't jerks about it to other people, who cares? Yeah OP's BF was difficult about his fries, but in general, does it matter in the long run? You really can't be "right" in an argument about personal preferences. lol
>>7550623
>>7550395
>>7550380
>>7550381
Obvious samefag, please.

All you can do is find a boyfriend that's as stuck up as you. Who gives a crap what anyone else thinks about you? You sound like a high school student. I know plenty of guys who matured at a young age, got their lives together, either started their own businesses/made a name for themselves, have great taste in clothes, make smart financial decisions, but they like food such as chicken fingers with ketchup and Dr. Pepper and won't eat anything remotely "complex" or "refined.
>>7550325
Also, You have no right to try and control his life when you have your own shit to fix. This dude has a personal preference that clashes with your own. YOU either think it's okay to cheat or don't have the willpower not to, which is sad because it's just something that normal people don't even battle with. Pretty big compared to food tastes.

wow, you are so wrong you are fucking laughable. but don't worry, along with infidelity, being a stuck up cuck who thinks theyre better than other people and that people who are not like you are the rare minority or the degenerates is also pretty fucking normal.

You seem to think that one has to drink alcohol when going somewhere upscale. Soda isn't a good idea, but I really hate your insistence that alcohol is mandatory.

I don't drink wine really. Like at all, I'm just not a fan. I'd take a strong Imperial Stout, glass of bourbon, scotch, brandy, or whatever, over it any day.
I'm fairly certain I can handle liquor much harder than wine, and I still choose not to drink it. You're literally retarded.

Most replies agree that the BF has a bad/immature/pleb taste in food. They just believe OP is a cunt for thinking it's a big deal and getting pissy over it.
>>7552669
This. Different people like different liquors. Some people just don't drink at all. Not liking wine means very little in this day and age.
>>7552684
>pallet
and here you are, criticizing us
>>7550228
I don't generally drink and yes I'll order a coke with a 'fancy' meal.
Alcoholic drinks are overpriced and I don't need them to enjoy my food or my company.
>>7552785
>coke
>not patrician tier water
Stay plebe
>>7550228
I would legit break up with him. So yeah, do that.
>>7550201
>dear cu/ck/s board
>my boyfriend sucks
>what do?
>>7551939
This sentence confuses me
>>7550228
I disagree with everyone else and completely understand being uncomfortable if he wont drink wine around the buds, it's just immature. If I were you I would legitimately break up with him unless you're somehow financially dependent (which you probably are)
as for the taste in food it's not that bad, really. Some people just like stuff well done, if he doesn't have a taste for more fancy foods that's just they way he is.
>>7550228
Good god, the only people I have encountered that would genuinely get pissed about someone refusing alcohol were unhappy women who would piss and whine until they got their own way.
I have been in a lot of drinking environments - frat parties, Las Vegas, and festivals, etc. but even in these situations I have never seen someone genuinely upset for someone who refused alcohol.
>>7550201
Dump him and jump on my dick
ayyyyyy
Seriously though, anyone over 21 pretty much has their personality set, so stop wasting time trying to change them.

Thank you. I have tried suggesting some wines that I thought he would enjou but he ALWAYS makes some excuse about his parents and their problems with alcohol. I honestly want to tell him to grow up. I mean my parents drank alcohol and they're completely fine. Sometimes I really want to call up his parents and tell them their son is too afraid to drink alcohol! I brought it up with a couple of friends but they all thought it was a terrible idea. Though I think I will take the chance once I wine myself up a bit..
i mean, my bf hasnt ever gotten to eat really good food on a regular basis, so his tastes match that (cheap, fast food etc.) i'm heading off to culinary school this year and i've been cooking stuff that he wouldn't usually eat, and he likes most of them. as for not liking wine, some people literally just dont like wine. it can't be helped. overall this post is kinda weird. its not a big deal op.
>>7554421
>all the grills here with manchildren bf's willing to cook for them and make them happy
>have superior patrician taste in food and excellent culinary skills but forever alone
your answers is you are dating a pleb with no taste or class. he seems closed minded so changing him will be near impossible. gl
Get him to go vegan. Nothing helps your tastes mature like going vegan
>>7550752
seriously everyone that has replied to this thread has seriously made me think hiw Fucking stupid and retarded /ck/ is. Fucking mouth breathing mountain dew addicted neckbeards. don't listen to anyone here ever again plz unless you want to end up living in your mother's basement with a bunch of Its on your face and defending the eating of well done steak and soda.
>>7554415
Your friends are right - it's a terrible idea. And you're a terrible person for trying to force alcohol on someone who isn't interested. Your parents and your childhood experiences with alcohol aren't his, so I'm not sure what you're trying to say. But there is literally nothing abnormal or wrong with not drinking - trying to force someone to drink is more socially unacceptable than it.
>>7554371
It's not immature at all. He doesn't drink alcohol. There's nothing wrong with that, and I highly doubt anyone but his GF cares.
Even if he did drink, and just disliked wine in particular, that'd be fine too.
>>7554467
I fell for the bait, but tell me exactly what's wrong with liking a nice scotch or bourbon, and not wine? Or what's wrong with just not drinking alcohol in general?
>>7550201
Tell him that although you will never have children with him, your sons will view him as their father.
>>7554474
How AM I the terrible person? I give him the opportunity to enjoy the finer things in life and all he does is refuse my suggestions. He should at least try to show an interest in what I like and be a better person. I'm practically giving my knowledge to him.
>>7554449
maybe your excessive wanking about "muh palate" and your use of phrases like "super patrician" is turning them off m8
having expensive tastes in food is NOT a skill
>>7554507
You're a terrible person because you are trying to force somebody you are supposed to love to drink and possibly relive harmful memories from his childhood of his alcoholic parents. Getting somebody with alcoholic parents to drink alcohol is not making somebody a better person, and you're absolutely delusional or a troll for saying otherwise.
Try telling him.
>>7554485
Straight liquor pairs as well with food as bicycles do with swimming pools.
Wine and beer is literally the best things to pair with food, ordained by God and gifted to man.
>>7554551
>wine and beer is the best thing to pair with food
HAHAHAHAHA....
No.
Seeing a billion beer commercials on television has brainwashed you.
OP, get a food boyfriend.
Find a good friend that loves to dine out and is ok with having a platonic relationship based on loving food and drink. You can get that kind of satisfaction from someone else without having to train your retarded boyfriend.
I call it food-cucking.
Just be sure to throw a BJ to the guy once every few months, for gods sakes.
>>7554507
>I'm practically giving my knowledge to him.
pretentious as shit
did you ever consider that maybe, just maybe, he doesn't want your "knowledge"?
considering the severe lack of perspective taking skills I suspect you have ASD
are bait threads infrequent around here?
>>7554507
How exactly does having a refined palate make somebody a better person? Serious question, not trying to antagonize you here. The way I see it, unless you have a career in the food industry it only serves to make you poor.
>>7554507
I can't decide if this is a troll, or if OP is really just this much of a bitch.

So.....you want your boyfriend to be exicted about the two of you go to YOUR friend's house for a "OMG WINE NIIIIIIGHT" and take duck face selfies with wine glasses?
Maybe he just doesn't want pictures of him chugging wine plastered on Instagram
Maybe he doesn't like your friends
There are multiple reasons
Post boipucci pls.
>>7554583
Firstly, I must please ask that you avoid being a moral relativist right now, please, seriously, it's bad.
Is it better that people who enjoy good music exist? Because of them, good music has a market to exist.
Because of people that like good movies exist, good movies are made. If not for them, everything would be an Adam Sandler movie.
The whole reason we aren't shoveling porridge into our mouths three times a day is because people are compelled to eat good food. The best food, food that can be pleasing, exciting, surprising, unique, or all of the above, exists for and by people who love food and have a refined palate to enjoy it
>>7554599
Some Adam Sandler movies are considered kino.
>>7554599
You didn't answer my question. I get why good food exists, I'm asking you why preferring it makes somebody a better person than someone who doesn't.
>>7554602
kino is a shit meme and you should really, seriously, consider offing yourself for using it unironically or even ironically

just keep saving your GBP bro
>>7554602
>(((Adam Sandler)))
I've had people I wouldn't date because they were picky eaters. This one fella I know won't ever order anything other than fries at any restaurant we stop by. If they don't have fries and coke, he gets nothing at all.
Being able to try and enjoy many different kinds of foods is pretty important for me in a relationship so I wouldn't put up with someone who demands fries at a restaurant.
But you're being a dick to complain about him not drinking.
>>7555087
I had a quick look, seems mostly to be about the election
>>7555244
No, the top 5 threads right now are about racism. /pol/ discusses mostly race and to a much lesser extent homosexuality, there are only election threads there because the election affects the aforementioned issues
>>7555275
racism? hmm, I should look into it then
>>7555296
You should, and you should stay there
>>7550201
Stop drinking wine at dinner for fucks sake. Why do girls do this? It just just leads to trouble. Three glasses later and your mom is telling your mother-in-law that she thinks you're autistic (completely untrue despite being a 4chan poster), and you have to carry your wife home who's passed out drunk.
>>7550228
This doesn't make any fucking sense, there's nothing classless about being an abstainer. I swear to God man these females just want any excuse to drink wine. And not just alcohol, WINE. Sloppy, gossiping whores desu.
>>7555297
aww did something trigger your sjw ptsd? who would have thought that some people don't think diversity is awesome, that some people think that Whites should be allowed their own countries, just like other races are. can you name one White country not predicted to become minority White in teh next 100 years? what!? not one? wow, sounds like genocide. you're not for genocide are you?
>>7555352
Not triggered so much as annoyed, you idiots are obsessed with race and drag it into conversations where it has no bearing on anything
>>7555356
aww
you saying you DO support genocide of Whites?
it's ok, they're the only group that you can't be racist to, and they get last pick at jobs, promotions, university, etc. in the countries they founded and built
won't it be wonderful when they are all gone
>>7555365
is this a sjw parody?
>>7555356
You literally just described liberals.
Did you hear about this left wing push to get multiracial emoticons on phones? Well they made them, and guess what? The very next day you have a black SJW writer writing an article how the new black emoticons are problematic because now she HAS to use the black emoticon. There's just no winning with them and they are absolutely obsessed with race.
MTV is literally the White Guilt Network now. It's disgusting.
>>7555402
Right, and I'm just as annoyed with sjw liberals as I am with you /pol/ morons who won't leave social issues out of any conversation. The only difference is sjws don't show up here nearly as much.
>>7555402
yeah, nothings ever good enough for them
give an inch and they take a mile, then still play the fucking victim and moan and bitch
>>7555406
I apologize for the off-topic post, I didn't initiate the political turn of conversation and I just couldn't help responding to an anon saying in all seriousness that he believes the right wing is obsessed with race. It was just too absurd and untrue to pass up.
>>7555441
He's right though, /pol/ is by far the leakiest board on the entire website. He didn't say that the entire right wing is obsessed with race, just /pol/ and I have to agree with him there.
>>7554449
maybe it's time for a reality check?
I've read two lines of you and I already dislike you.

make it wrong for guys like you.

yeah yeah just like every other decade in history the race war is just around the corner :) better convert now before the end times happen!

>>7550305
Why did I read this in a british accent
>>7556006
>how are you any different from the religious again?
our worldview is based on observable, provable, facts
if we are wrong, which White countries are still projected to be majority White in 100 years? any? Which ones are not having millions or tens of millions of foreigners imported? Which ones are at or above the sustainable fertility rate of 2.11 per woman? any?
please do answer these questions, and don't deflect
>just like every other decade in history
there was no threat 100 years ago. If you take the USA as an example, it was over 90% White from its creation(by Whites) in 1776, until the Immigration and Naturalization Act was passed in 1965. Since then it has been reduced to 60% White. Are these facts? Can you refute them?

wrong lol 61.6 + 95.9 / 2 = 78.75%
>>7556033
ok, lets say 80% then, are you going to attempt the other questions? or just blatantly disregard them again?
>>7556033
your silence speaks volumes
>>7555985
If somebody kept bringing up their family in conversation when it didn't relate or pertain to anything then yes, they are obsessed and they should stop
>>7556210
No, I don't care to read your blog post and refute it. Talk about these things on /pol/ and not here, thanks.
>>7556221
I rate that as a deflection, gg
you agree with all the points because you could not refute them
>>7556223
>that kindergarten level of reasoning
you're an embarrassment to our race
>>7556227
oh, you refuted them?
sorry, I must have missed it
>>7550297
That's a yes.
Whats your obsession with the percentage of a country being a certain demographic. too many whites are impotent/beta males, how are you gonna blame non-whites for white women wanting non-white men. And still, so what? Everyone country/Civilization has its time. Whites had theirs. No go back to not having kids and blaming black people
>>7550201
Find something similar to what he likes and surprise him. Then find something similar to that if he likes it then surprise him with that. In a month, you'll be able to apply this more easily and you can get him to really get adventurous. Or let him like what he likes, I don't care.

Learn how to be a well adjusted adult and mature member of society you stupid fucking manchild. This guy has the tastebuds of a fucking child but he is an adult who is too much of a sheltered, pussy to have any shred of enthusiasm to try new things. Who the fuck still refuses to eat their greens at age 28? Besides the fact that it's embarrassing for his partner, he's really embarrassing himself. Coke, fries, and well done steak in a fancy restaurant? God I wonder how the staff at the restaurant reacted. There comes a point in a persons life where they need to grow up. Having a diet of a fat child is not adult like.
>>7560435
it's only embarrassing if you care about others opinions.
either way, i do eat a lot of greens, i normally drink wine at restaurants and all that stuff but i do it because i like those things, not because of other people's opinions.
you seem to misunderstand what growing up means
>>7560435
>if I order my steak how I want it, the waitstaff might judge me, oh god the horror

What the fuck is the point of going to a 5 star restaurant and ordering dry meat, fried potatoes and sugar water? Besides being the epitome of a pleb, you think ordering items that are not even on the fucking menu is ok?
Just face the fact that you're mad because OP's boyfriend is probably like you and you haven't grown up yet.
>>7550228
What's wrong with not drinking wine? I usually just have water or iced tea with dinner. Not everyone likes alcohol. Not everyone CAN drink alcohol, actually.
>>7560452
He probably didn't even want to go m8 his gf made him in all likelihood. While I agree it's in poor taste and that I personally would not do it, I would also not give a fuck if somebody at the restaurant, regardless of if I know him or not, did order those things. I don't have to eat them so why should I care? Seems like you're the one who hasn't grown up yet if you care so much about other people's decisions that don't affect you at all.

The standards for being a conscientious and decent human being aren't relative. Everyone around you can lie to you, but I can see in this post you're having trouble lying to yourself. If you're screaming so loudly on an anonymous cooking board that this food thing is the reason- no, excuse- for you to cheat I'm pretty damn sure you know on some level just how fucked up you've made this scenario.

Simple.

Just make him happy orderingång something he likes. You vant just complain tjat you dont like hes chice in foods and drink. Get working on figuring out ALL the staff he could like and buse/make him the top 2 things in the while world that you beleve he would like.
Also blowjobs

Great way to completely invalidate your argument and make yourself look like an idiot.
>All the man-children ITT that support not trying things
She said he wouldn't even fathom trying a whole list of things. To me, that is a sign of more hidden issues.
Being picky and legitimately not liking food is one thing. But refusing common foods because you won't even try it [and it has nothing to do with dietary restrictions or religious preference or alcohol. Criticizing on wine is a bit far, unless he went to a wine tasting and asked for a Coke] probably hints to more undesirable quirks or even hidden issues.
It is one thing to not like a bunch of stuff, but it is another to just not try it. That IS childish and stupid.
>>7562884
They just hate women because they are bitter about being rejected. I hate modern feminists but the type of misogyny in this thread is what fuels them.

What's your media preferences, OP?
I bet you listen to things, watch things, and read things that other people consider the taste of a little kid. Get over the fact that he doesn't have an interest in food as something more than 'eating stuff that will make me stop be hungry that im used to eating'.
