to not be able to get over DH'S fussy eating?

[wowl]

I'm prepared to be told I am, but I'm just at the point of being beyond frustrated and into very angry. I'm probably being ridiculous so this is a bit lighthearted but I am frustrated.

I don't remember him being this bad when we got together. I really don't. I'm an adventurous person but not even that adventurous an eater, the food I like is perfectly normal. I used to bend to what he liked and cook things he'd eat (SAHM of a toddler) but now we live with another family member who also likes what I like so the fact he won't eat it is really being rubbed in my face now.

Meals he will eat:

• beef burgers with chips (picks the salad out if at a restaurant)
• margarita pizza
• chicken nuggets or breaded chicken breast and chips
• toad in the hole
• sausages in a baguette or with mash and peas
• fish and chips
• tikka masala
• lasagna if pushed
• cheese sandwiches

...that's pretty much it. Made non-spicy fajitas tonight and he's picked over one for 45 minutes

I just feel like I'm living with 2 children instead of one, and I find it a massive turn off. It's driving me mad at the moment, so AIBU to be really annoyed by this? He says he "tries new things" but that means taking one bite and making faces. I can't take it anymore!

To be honest, I'd find it deeply unattractive, and I wouldn't be able to progress a relationship with someone who ate like a tantrumming toddler. So as much as I wouldn't dump them for this, it would colour the way I viewed them negatively enough to stop me progressing further.

Just the thought of going out for a romantic meal and they are ordering nuggets and chips off the kids menu would turn me right off.

Well anyone tantrumming like a toddler is going to find relationships hard to come by. Not sure what that has to do with people who have food issue. They're entirely separate issues.

Wow bluntness I've just caught up with this thread, and you've really outdone yourself this time - well done!

I noticed a couple of pages back you poured out a load of pity for people with food issues, seeming momentarily to understand that, yes, it must be very hard... and then added your nasty comment about 'choosing to live that way.'

It's as if you can't read. Or you're just deeply unpleasant...

Sleepthief if you don't mind veggies blended then try to eat some each day.

Our friends and their family are like a warning on the side of a cigarette pack

Friend started with problems with her veins when she was about 10 years older than you are now. Her legs now are completely purple.

When friends were 32 they appeared to be in rude health. It is as you age the building blocks of your diet over the years start to crumble if you haven't ate a wide variety of stuff. Not just meat and potatoes

JoshLymanjr what on earth do you think hummus is made of?

Why should he have to eat something he clearly dosent like? When i dont like whats being cooked I will just order a takeaway.
