Help settle a discussion between between me and my husband.
I think scraping your cutlery on your plate is the equivalent of licking your plate.. The foods gone, no need for all of the scraping to get every last morsel of food in your gob!
He thinks my intolerance to food noises is getting out of hand.
I will admit I've always been sensitive to people chewing/slurping but regardless I still believe scraping is bad table manners, anyone else, or am I really being unreasonable?

  • For context we have had chicken salad for dinner, he had finished but was scraping mayonnaise left on the plate onto his fork.

Children screeching, motorbikes, one sided phone calls.

The noise of Harley Davidsons. Red mist descends big time.

YANBU OP. I’d have divorced him over this.

I can’t stand most noises/people though Grin

Chewing.

Also, that sniff. Often by men which comes from their toes. A hacking sniff. It’s utterly disgusting and can often be accompanied by a spit.

Noisy eating is the most unbearable sound in the world, but I do have misophonia.

Men sniffing like they don't know what a tissue it.
Blow your firkin nose for gods sake.
