GROSSED OUT (rant)

I only get grossed out if they are making a lot of noise while eating. :sick: THAT is disguisting and I sometimes have to walk away depending on how loud it is. But I don't judge by what/how much someone else eats.

ETA and my SO and daughter are such LOUD eaters :sad:

Holy crap YES! I can't stand loud eaters, it makes me want to :sick: Especially people who inhale with every bite, please, please stop :noway: Usually if someone is eating a bunch of junk, it just makes me wish I had some too.

I think it is seriously my biggest pet peeve in life... :ohwell:

Oh yeah this. But only because while growing up someone used to do it on purpose as a tease thing.

:noway: Mine is for the same reason!!! Crazy....

I was just at the gas station getting out of my car when I looked over I saw this guy inhaling some cheesy, greesy gas station food n wanted to freak out.

YES! I have the hardest time watching my husband eat now that i dont binge like that any more.... i just want to grab the junk out of his hand and throw it away. It really does gross me out. Saying anything starts a fight so i just let him eat what he wants...i cant control him that way.

What a pleasure you must be to have around.

Se is a wonderful pleasure to be around. If you knew her story you would know why she feels this way. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, stop bashing,

I don't have to know the full story. The fact that she goes as far to say that her husband's eating grosses her out is enough for me base my opinion on. :flowerforyou:

You can't control your subconscious biases and internal reactions. All you can do is determine how these will dictate your behavior. She said she doesn't try to control her husband's behavior.

:huh:

I'm just saying that you can't control when you feel disgust, it just happens. If she was picking on her husband, being rude about it, etc., it would make sense for you to take issue with it, but since she doesn't react this way, why are you so defensive on his behalf?

I agree that it's not a very nice reaction and it's something that maybe she should work on for herself, but you seem to be taking offense to it because you've worried people have judged you in the same way.

Of course that is why. I constantly feel judged by outsiders, so even just imagining being judged by my S/O really hurts me. I really feel for her husband, and I hope he finds someone better. Clearly, he doesn't deserve to have a wife who is grossed out by his eating habits.

I'm sorry that you have to deal with that. It sounds like an awful thing to be self-conscious about. :frown:

Edited to add: even though I feel for you and I understand why it's a touchy subject for you, I still think that you're being overly harsh on her, judging (ironically) her entire worth based on one reaction she has.

I honestly don't care. :flowerforyou:

You're not going to change my opinion.

I watch it everyday at work and just want to scream. Don't they understand what they are putting in their bodies? He eats it, then complains about his weight

I think your comment about him finding better is more harmful. Seriously, you think he should leave her cause she would love for him to eat better? Shame on you I think.

I don't think I'm grossed out, but I am kind of surprised and shocked by some of the things people mindlessly eat now that I'm aware of my own eating habits.

My brother can eat an entire New York style pizza by himself. That is shocking and just a total disregard for his well being. It is wild.

'Cause she would love for him to eat better? That's a joke.

That is not how she stated it. She claims to be grossed out.

That doesn't seem to show much concern. That's judging him.

:laugh: I apologize for all the quoting

Ahhhh ... rant threads.

They never go/end well. Usually, it's like watching a train wreck.

... anybody got popcorn?? With LOTS of butter?

:huh:

That's because he put his foot down when she tried. If she is truly grossed out, her face is going to speak volumes and who knows where this loathing of his food habits will end up touching in terms of the rest of their relationship.

This one has to be the best one yet.....Let me clarify something to you since you seem to know every thing in all your 18 yrs of life. I have been very over weight...i am not any more...I try to to the right things every day food and health wise. I cook for this man healthy every day. He is almost 400 lbs with severe diabetes and other health issues...My face shows nothing but love and compassion for this man who truly has no desire to control his eating habits. I would prefer he be around for the next 30 years and healthy. I have been fighting this battle with him for 9 years! Dont tell me he deserves someone better....his choices have put us thru alot and i am STILL HERE. I will never stop trying to help him. I need to get healthy and strong to take care of him when he cant take care of himself any longer if that happens. Again i will say, when this man has eaten at Mc donalds 3 x a day PLUS his regular meals....yeah its kinda gross....Id appreciate it if you would quit attacking me now....thanks
