His family shortchanges me at the chinese

Whenever we go out to eat with his family its always chinese food(its ok but I'm not a huge fan). The problem is this: When the order comes they all want to share their mains and starters, they all put it in the middle. I can't eat fish (After once eating bad fish I was in the hospital for 5 days) and they all order fish or seafood dishes. They eat theirs plus most of mine so I hardly get anything to eat? Its starting to make me resentful everytime we go. What should I do?

who is he?!!
Just ask if you can order separsately as you don't eat fish any more...

are you real? this is what most people do when they go for a chinese and they are perhaps guilty of being thoughtless, but nothing more. I'm sure you could just say lets order two of whatever your dish is so that everyone gets some and theres enough for you. I don't think its a big deal.

i would say "ok, i think i'll order seperately if you don't mind - i don't like fish"

sorry mystery Santa ,my husband. They all know I don't eat fish. I guess I feel like They'll think I'm making a big deal of it if I say I'll order separate. I guess yall are right I should speak up.
