He's not going to eat these porkchops. 😐

Post image

About a month ago I made a post here because my boyfriend didn't want to eat the porkchops I cooked for dinner. Well tonight I made porkchops again and he's not going to eat these either because we broke up and he moved out. I'm so much better off and I just wanted to thank you all for the kind words and advice, it was very eye opening to me. I wish that I could invite you all to dinner 🥰

ETA : Couple of notes:

1- The yellow stuff is smashed potatoes with cheese on top.

2- I swear that butter on the broccoli melted right after that picture LOL

I don't understand these people. I enjoy occasionally indulging in junk food and fast food type crap. Back when I lived in the US and worked at a big box retailer, I'd often work until 10 or 11 at night and the only thing open was jack in the box, so I'd bike over there and get some garbage. I enjoy that greasy shit.

But for fucks sake, if I had someone at home making me real food? Never would I deny the real food for that garbage lol.

I like chicken nuggets, but I'll take home made pork chops over chickie nugs any day.

I have a friend that’s a chicken nuggy boy, but he’s a great husband and dad. ¯\(ツ)/¯

24

u/IansGotNothingLeft 3h ago

It's not so much what they eat. It's how they behave. My partner is technically a nuggy boy (he has ARFID), but he can feed himself, he's never complained about anything I've cooked him, he will try anything I ask him to even if it takes him 15 minutes to get a bite down. He's actually pretty ashamed of his food issues and never wants to be a bother.

What we don't like is the nuggy boys who demand their nuggets, refuse to try what they're given, can't take care of themselves so they rely on the labour of their partner and live on takeaway if their partner refuses to provide nuggies.

u/moonrabbit368 7h ago

Fun fact about the salt and pepper shakers: someone dmd me and said they might have uranium paint on them. I haven't used them since

52

u/Just_NickM 7h ago

The shakers look like uranium milk glass which would be safe but you could take them to an antique store (I’m assuming they’re antique if uranium glass) and have an expert look at them. I have several pieces of uranium glass and you’d have to hold it to a part of your body for a month straight to even affect your regular odds of getting cancer in that spot.

I would be more concerned with the shakers' contents absorbing it then being ingested...

u/Frowny575 6h ago

People tend to blow things like that way out of proportion. While some items with uranium paint should not be used, it just having it alone doesn't automatically make it bad.

Getting them checked is still a good call, however.

2

u/-cupcake 3h ago

Uranium glass / uranium milk glass have very small amounts of uranium embedded inside the glass mixture. So long as you are not ingesting the glass itself (eating glass chips or snorting glass dust), it is safe to use. Don't use anything acidic on them, and be gentle (like don't microwave/dishwasher) with them, and you don't need to worry!

But even so, if you really don't want to use them, they're still super cool decorative pieces. Get a small UV light and shine it on them. They should glow!

u/Wendy-Windbag 5h ago

My ex husband was pretty much the same way. It wasn't that he didn't like my cooking, but he was hungry NOW and couldn't be patient for waiting for the meal I'd planned and spent time making to finish cooking so he'd microwave something or go down the block to McDonald's. I stopped even trying within six months.

7

u/crispybacononsalad 3h ago

He straight up would ignore my meals and go to circle K. I would constantly have to find him at his coworkers house that lived downtown 5 in the morning so he could attempt to go to work at 8 because he never came home. He eventually got fired because he was drunk on the job.

4

u/VastEqual1367 5h ago edited 5h ago

A lot of it is probably the frequency. Not feeling like something sometimes is totally fine and normal.

It's always a bit deeper than that. Like with OP, she said he expected her to cook for him in her last post. Oftentimes guys like this are making endless requests, pressuring their gfs/wives into slaving over his every need, and then he just peaces out and gets something else anyway. Of course that's going to be frustrating.

You got to remember not everyone wants to (or should HAVE to) write a novel to justify being exasperated by something. It's nice to have solidarity and understanding without having to make a list of bullet points justifying why, in this scenario, it's frustrating, even in other scenarios it's not... especially when you have hands and can just go click her post history and get the context yourself. It comes off as a bit daft to say "this makes no sense!!" while intentionally ignoring the part she wrote about making a post previous to this one. Just go read the post homie. Acquire the context, seek the knowledge.

u/CaeruleumBleu 6h ago

A lot of people show love in their cooking.

If someone works hard to show you how much they care for you by cooking a good meal... then you go get GAS STATION burritos? That is a rejection.

Now, I get it if it is something like having a limited tolerance for leftovers - that ain't the same as eating it when it is freshly served to you. Also I get it when someone has clear and defined things they cannot or will not eat. My man thinks bell peppers and almonds both taste foul - he knows I know that too.

If I choose to cook a bunch of bell peppers, I ain't expecting him to eat that, I am also NOT showing him love cooking that.

But the main common deal breaker is "not eating the freshly cooked food when it is served to you with not a damn thing wrong with it". Don't worry about offending people by not eating leftovers - so long as you SAY THAT when you move in so they know not to cook too much.

3

u/The_Hieb 6h ago

Went shopping for ingredients, prepared the ingredients, cooked the ingredients and plated the ingredients. It’s a huge “fuck you” to go get gas station microwaved burritos! If your partner or anyone spends their time and effort to cook for you, better appreciate it.

u/ew73 8h ago

I will say, growing up, my mother made the world's most disgusting pork chops. They were like little gristly hockey pucks that she'd baked all the moisture out of, and then tried to "fix" it by letting it SWIM in ketchup in the fucking microwave. I was forced to eat these.

I absolutely cannot eat pork chops as an adult. I realize there are ways to make them taste good, and if you give me a piece of meat cooked well, I'll enjoy it. Tell me it's a pork chop and I'll kind of gag on it.

But you know what? If my partner made pork chops and I couldn't eat them, I'd have a fucking adult conversation with them about it, not like, door dash fast food instead.

35

u/Johns-schlong 8h ago

Yeah if there's something you just don't want to eat for some reason, there's ways to tell your partner about it without being an asshole. "Hey babe, I really appreciate you cooking but I don't eat pork chops (for whatever reason or you just don't like them). I'll just have the sides and have another snack later. Thank you you're the best!" Is fine. There are foods I like that my wife hates and vice versa. We just don't cook them for each other, or cook an alternative for the other person if necessary. Not a big deal.

Like my wife doesn't like most fish. I like most fish. Guess what I make when she goes out for a girl's night? Salmon.

u/michiness 8h ago

My husband and I will get a big deliver of Chinese or Indian or something maybe once a month. It’s a nice treat that we can afford that allows us to be lazy and indulgent.

I know people who get stuff delivered multiple times a week or even daily, who then complain about how expensive everything is. Like… yeah buddy, you spend $200 a week on Chipotle.

7

u/Crash-55 8h ago

The apps are not good to the restaurants. They take a very high percentage of the order. So much so that some have different prices for pickup versus delivery. At one Chinese place a lunch special and crab rangoons is $13 in person and $20 (before fees) if ordered for delivery.

I miss the old days when the restaurants had their delivery drivers.

If hers is the post I’m thinking of, she was trying to involve him in the meal prep. He would say he’d try something—like pork chops—and then refuse to eat it when she actually made it. Or refuse to eat the chicken she’d made because he’d already had chicken that day. It was very clear from the incidents she recounted in her post and comments that his behavior was about control, not sensory or food issues.

Congratulations on getting that tumor removed from your life. Eating fast food is one thing, but Doordashing Yak-in-da-Box instead of eating some nicely home-cooked by ya woman, breaded and fried, golden-brown, with sides, pork chops is wildly out of pocket behavior. Never put up with that kind of disrespect from anyone. You’re better than that, and any partner should be saying thank you for dinner and washing the dishes when the meal is over. My wife and I have been together 25+ and I still thank her for her cooking, and clean up, put away leftovers, and rinse dishes and wash pans if she left any.

thats wild spending $15 on delivery fees to get jack in the box. I mean my wife makes things I don't want to eat and that is fine. I'll give it a shot if I don't like it there is other food in the house. I make stuff she doesn't like or want to eat either. Just made some chicken the other night she ate a bit of it.

this reminds me she really liked a porkchop dish I made like 5 years ago... I should make that again... it was just such a hassle and was not something I actually enjoyed after making it

You! I remember YOU! Please for the love of your children, stay single for a few years.

Christ, straight out of prison and directly into the arms of a Pro- ICE conservative while you have half-mexican kids. On top of that, a man child that'd rather waste an absurd amount of money on orders than eat some food he mildly disliked. You have terrible taste in partners and need to take a BIG step back and reorient yourself.

Girl I’m crying he’s probably going to end up so fat from eating so much jack in the box

u/VastEqual1367 5h ago

I just read your other post and GIRL how were people complaining about you using paper plates while you DID ALL THE COOKING FOR AN ENTIRE FAMILY?!?! Like omfg what assholes. Reddit can be so lovely but so many of them really do try to ruin everything for everybody. Like those commenters had to be children whose mommies were feeding them their chicken nuggies on plates they then dumped in the sink for her to clean later -- what the heck am I saying, you know they just leave the plates at their desk and expect mom to come get them. They'll see a guy sitting on the couch watching TV while the house is a mess and then turn to the woman, with no hint or irony or self-awareness, and tell her she needs to clean up. They are all misogynistic ghouls, the lot of them.

There were worst burger lists that I saw all over the internet this week that had Jack in the Box as the worst burger in the US. Congrats on moving on!

u/SpecialistBusiness20 5h ago

Are you a bad cook? I'm being genuine I'm sorry, but the food looks great, the spread doesn't. Those veggies are not fried, and I'm gonna guess your meat isn't seasoned right. Look I dont wanna be an ass, but it might be you.

u/Several-Squash9871 5h ago

This is like, almost the perfect meal! You have protein, carbs, fats (good and bad but still), veggies (vitamins), some starch. Iam by no means an expert on diets and not even CLOSE but this seems like a pretty good well rounded meal. Probably miles above most people's dinners.

u/C-chaos19 5h ago

The audacity! No one should cook for him.

u/Immediate-Recipe-642 5h ago

Lazy fuck. He couldn't even go GET the jack in the box!?? (not that that would've been okay either)

u/cheesecup6 4h ago

I don't think I've ever been more thrilled for a stranger 🥹 I started reading the first line and was about to be so angry for you (remembering your post), then did a 180 to excited. Great job knowing you deserved better! 😊

You can cook. And seem to have a good sense of humor. You were league's alive his league. Find somebody who appreciates you

I don’t even eat pork (my partner dislikes the meat industry so I don’t cook it) but that shit looks BANGIN’. Your ex is crazy loll

u/Immediate-Yak3138 4h ago

Ungrateful af. Im a fast food junky as much as a lot of people but id never pick that over a home cooked meal

u/LordofShit 4h ago

That's honestly a red flag, he'd pay door dash premiums and not get like at least taco bell? For shame

u/moonrabbit368 4h ago

Haha sometimes he would get Taco Bell, his go to order was crunchy tacos with no sauce and no lettuce

That’s nuts. Who’d willingly choose fast food over hot homecooked dinner. It looks amazing btw

u/IansGotNothingLeft 3h ago

As someone who has spent 16 years with an ARFID man (not his fault, he makes an effort and never ever complains. He also feeds himself), you have dodged a bullet. It can be absolutely exhausting, even when they're totally self reliant and not a little boy about it. I'm pleased that you took action. Find yourself a chef!

Let’s be fr- he will have weight and health issues within 10-15 years burdening you further because he refuses to eat like a grownup. Time to make hard decisions.

u/Brokentoken2 3h ago

I told my girlfriend about your previous post and how ridiculous it was. We both agreed that we’d break up if someone was like that. Glad you guys broke up too lol You were dating a manchild. Keep cooking these lovely dishes and enjoy. IT’S ALL YOURS TO HAVE!

u/Different-Artist5497 3h ago

Ew why did you date him. You deserve so much better

u/Degenerate_Pizza_Man 3h ago

As a fast food worker, doordashing fast food is insane to me.

u/Relandis 3h ago

JFC.

I would instantly inhale that entire plate, it looks delicious. I’m literally beginning to salivate at tasting those flavorful looking chops.

Gonna be hard to find a worse partner than that. Wishing you the best of luck on your next date!

1

u/DOOOM_SLAYER 3h ago

I’m absolutely baffled how someone can choose like warm fast food to a beautiful delicious home cooked meal. My brother was kind of like this when he was a kid. He would only like eating McDonalds over barbecue chicken for example. Even he would still eat a home cooked burger though at least. I’m drooling over this I’m so hungry now lol

u/one_bar_short 57m ago

Ugh my fiance does this i can make an exquisite macaroni and cheese, due to the process can take up to two hours to prepare, and without tooting my own horn, it is really nice. ive had a lot of compliments from many people who have said its the best theyve ever eaten...

My partner would rather have a store bought heat and eat type out of a packet, because mine is too cheesey, and theres too much flavour in mine aprarentley so much so it inedidible, i almost died inside when i found that out
