How to approach partners eating habits

[Sprinklecake97]

Hi I'm looking for advice,

I've been with my partner for 5 years now but I'm at literally struggling with his eating!! He eats like a dog and I can't bare it anymore I've made comments about it in the past before, nothing rude, but fuck me it's disgusting. He didn't take nothing I said on board. His mouth is open he makes noises, slurps, can see his food going around in his mouth like a washing machine. His mother is exactly the same so I see where his table manners came from but least with her I can get away from her. I know it may sound silly but I'm really starting to look at him in disgust.. if he doesn't like something I do I'd happily stop if it made him uncomfortable but the fact I've mentioned it before and he's not even made a effort to stop is really annoying. I have had my mum bring it up to me as-well it's embarrassing what can I do to get this to stop?!

After five years you can't. Do you eat out, aren't friends saying anything?

It would make me feel sick @Sprinklecake97 he doesn’t care what you or anyone else thinks of his eating so he will always eat like it

The thing is when we were first together he never did this and what I've come to notice is when we go out to eat for example he's never loud but at home there's no manners

Film him. Every time

@LivelyMintViper this is what I have considered doing and showing him but I don't know if that's too much?

@WhatYouPutOutComesBack honestly I dunno how I've held back either but I'm at breaking point with it. It makes me feel physically sick. I can't sit across him because then I'll see all inside his mouth. I'm actually questioning if he does it on purpose to piss me off cause I definitely huff and puff so its either he knows it's pissing me off or he's so oblivious to it.

I'd say exactly this to him. And thar if it doesn't change immediately and fourth with, you are sorry but- you're going to leave him.

If it continues after that they you know it's deliberate. I mean, you already know it's deliberate tbf but, then you know he has contempt for you and its time to go.

Becauses It's not about the chewing. It's about respect. And not being able to find peace in your own home.

I'd be off. This would absolutely end my marriage.

Film him. He seems to be doing this deliberately but I would pretend that I thought he was unaware and film him to be 'helpful'. Interested to see what he says when you show him the film.

Genius! Absolutely this!

Tell him you know he can eat acceptably as he used to when you first met & still dies when you eat out (thank god) & ask him why he eats like a dog at home?

tell him he either eats properly or he eats in the kitchen like a dog does.

if he's an argumentative bugger that you otherwise want to stay with you could take your dinner into another room. 'Until he can eat nicely'
