Oh God help. On a date and can't eat the food (lighthearted!!)

[QuestionableMouse]

On a date with a lovely fella who is a good cook. We've been out before and had a fab time.

Just been presented with a plate of steak and the smell of it is turning my stomach. There's no way I can eat it.

He's in the kitchen (faffing). No pets about to slip it to... Should I shove it in my bag?

Coming back, beb

Do you not eat meat?

YABU. Smother it in a sauce

What’s wrong with the steak?

Why can't you eat it?

Are you pregnant??

He's back in the kitchen

Love steak usually but it smells awful to me. Like a bitches shop.

Argh

If you need it less rare then TELL HIM.

If you don’t eat meat then WHY THE FUCK DIDN’T YOU TELL HIM?

If you don’t eat meat or it smells off/ undercooked then don’t eat it!

If it’s just not to your taste then I’d politely eat as much as I could

Butchers ffs

Is it off?

Wtf is a bitches shop?

Oh god. You might have to force a bit down, eat the rest of the food then say your full?

Not pregnant

No help but just here to lol

Oh! Butchers 😄

@justforthisnow it’s clearly a typo and the OP meant butchers’ shop.

Do a Pam and say you're a vegetarian.. then keep it up for the next year and announce at Christmas you're no longer veggie 😂

Haha - bitches shop

I thought that was some sexist claptrap for "it smells like sanpro"

Just tell him op!! Why add to any worry of awkwardness by being less than truthful?

Toilet job 😬 or wrap it up and put in your bag, leave a few scraggy bits on the plate, make all the right noises etc and say you’re thinking of doing veganuary!

It's not even pink but smells awful. Might be off?

Argh

Omg

Could be orff

If it's "fashionably" rare, then ask him to do it medium or well done

I always specify a well done steak with no pink in the middle and noone yet has called me rude for it

If it smells off .... tell him

Like a bitches shop.

I'd love to go to a bitches shop

When I was a child and i didn't want to eat my dinner, i used to cut it all up, move it round the plate a bit and it looked like i ate some if it. When asked why i hadn't finished all my dinner, i just used to say i was too full up.
Could you try that?
