Some people will get VERY annoyed if you try to force things upon them. I will admit that I learned to like things by someone saying "here, try a bite". But that's different that totally trying to change someone's eating habits, particularly if they KNOW they do not like something. It will piss them off and annoy them to no end. I've had umpteen boyfriends try to get me to drink wine, for instance (which I can't stand, and never have liked). None of them have succeeded. One actually held a glass of sangria to my lips until I took a sip (needless to say he's long gone).

There's a difference between introducing someone to new things and trying to force them to change something so major.

Just like you can't help that you're short, he can't really help that he's a picky eater.

So I told my girl she needed to lose three pounds so she could get to 110 and she got pretty upset about it. I told her I was looking for a breeder and all.

I think she's just too sensitive at times.


lol, seriously though my girlfriend eats better than I do. I workout often but I eat like crap and I really want to change that.

Hey wait, I have an idea. Tell him you don't want the, um, byproducts of unhealthy food when you, um, you know. That's how I've been turning guys into vegetarians since 1993.

JUST KIDDING.

I had another idea! Plate sharing at restaurants. Both of you order something with plans to share. That way maybe he only tries a bite, but he should at least be able to try that!

You're all pretty gay.

I agree with adpiucf though. I publicly shame any girl I'm with if her body shows more than skin or bone.

I've been with my guy a considerably longer time, and no way would I do this. It sounds way too motherly. I'm his lover, not his mother. When I cook for us, he eats everything, but that's about it. This early in the game, it's a bit off-putting. If it's an issue of health, it's one thing--but if you want him to try food that he's not comfortable with because you think it's classy or sophisticated, that's just pretentious.

Seriously,

So my husband likes meals all done up with gourmet flair like his momma... Dayum momma's boy...

Anyhow, when I cook him his breakfast, I add a teaspoon of flaxseed oil to his eggs before I scramble them, along with a dash of cayenne pepper, wasabi powder and garlic because it is suppose to alleviate sinus allergies...

Then I make him drink a mixture of orange juice and pineapple juice in the morning when he has his beverage. Otherwise, I will hear him snorting all through the day... That boy does not know how to just be so quiet that no one can hear you...

I cannot feed him my type of diet, vegetarian--almost vegan, cuz well, my husband gets too musical at rest... He just toots and toots...
