I used to eat nothing but meat and potatoes. The few times a year I'd eat salad my stomach would rumble cause it's not used to it so I doubt your stepmother is lying.

But I eventually realized "the problem is me and my diet than the salad." Which it seems like she hasn't done yet.

You're probably right, I mean the bitch exists solely on a diet of cow parts, Starbucks drinks, and spite, so yeah she's probably got a real hosed up gut by now for sure

Me [20 F] with my boyfriend [21 M] of 9 months, I think he has an eating disorder

quote:

I think my boyfriend (21, m) has an eating disorder.

He's extremely picky with food, and it's taking a toll on his social life. He won't go to restaurants with people he likes because he's afraid to eat there. He told me that since age 3 he didn't try any new foods, because his father mentioned something about killing an animal, meat became gross to him. I think his parents also broke his trust because they started to puree meat and other things and mix it in with his food. His diet is mainly pasta with tomato sauce, plain cheese pizza and rice with carrots, peas and cauliflower.

I try to help him by cooking for him and suggesting new things, but he says he's extremely afraid. His biggest fear is that he doesn't like the taste of something and that he will vomit (especially in front of other people). He gets anxious when we meet with friends and make plans to cook something, because he doesn't know if he can eat the food or not. When he tries a new food he says that it tastes "ok" and that he never tasted something and liked it instantly. Pictures of food also don't look appetizing to him.

I don't know how to approach this issue, and I don't know how to support, help or encourage him to try new stuff. I'm mostly concerned that he will skip meet ups with other people just because of the food. He's constantly afraid that his friends find out that he doesn't eat much because he doesn't want to be seen as a weirdo.
Any suggestion is much appreciated. Thanks for reading.

tl;dr: I think my boyfriend has an eating disorder, I don't know how to help/support him. Help?

This is probably the story for most picky eaters. It's something you get start on early, enabled by your parents, and becomes absolutely humiliating to talk about but you have no idea where to even begin.

Ahaha gently caress that guy. She's definitely an rear end in a top hat but that's not a bad thing. Maybe if more creeps actually had consequences to their lovely behavior they would start hiding their creepiness and go back to masturbating to animal porn in the dark and avoiding women completely.

NTA. She wouldn't have had to go to illegal lengths if the school had done anything about any of her previous reports. Like his response to being told to stop harassing her was to tell her that she likes being chased. loving gross.

Panfilo posted:

She should sue the school for not acting sooner since her complaints about the guy were validated but only when they found out he thought Hitler was cool.

The school only acted on his support for fascist dictatorships. They still have her a warning for filing too many complaints about the pre-raper. I'm very impressed with her (illegal) workaround so that she could feel safe doing school work. I also just marathoned all 5 seasons of "Leverage".

I’ve been dating a girl for a few weeks now. After several attempts to go and check out her apartment, she reveals that she still lives and sleeps in the same bed as her ex boyfriend. This threw me for a loop. She said “it’s two queen mattresses put together so it’s not that bad”. When asked why she hasn’t pulled apart the two beds yet, she couldn’t give me an answer. I’m not sure how I should move forward with the beginning of this new relationship.

How can I help my boyfriend be more present?

quote:

Title pretty much says it all. I love my boyfriend, but I sometimes wish he was more present. There are times he will play a game on his phone for like an hour or more while we’re together. I’m really not on my phone at all when we’re together: This one doesn’t bother me much, but he also watches tv sometimes while we’re having sex. Also didn’t really bother me, but then yesterday he laughed at something on the tv while we were having sex. It sometimes takes him forever to finish and he’s said a big reason is because he allows himself to get distracted. What can I do to help him? ?Could it be as simple as switching off the tv?

Saw this happen. My roommates shared a decent sized room, relationship went to poo poo but they were stuck together for a few months while they sorted out moving out.

I only knew the guy well enough but it was clearly hell for them after the first month when they were both trying to see other people and then rapidly moved up their move out date.

AITA for being embarrassed by my friend

quote:

rear end in a top hat

My (26F) oldest friend (27F) and I have known each other since we were middle schoolers, so it’s been about 14 years of friendship. When we first met we were basically the same person in two bodies. We had all the same interests, did pretty much everything together, and practically lived at each other’s houses. I moved to a neighbouring town in high school and made new friends, but we still stayed close.

As you do in college, I developed new interests in my late teens/early 20s. We no longer have that much in common—for example, she’s into anime, cosplay, video games, etc and I’m not all—and while we’ve drifted a little we still talk frequently and tend to go on a trip or two together, sometimes including other people as well, every year. As we’ve gotten older, I’ve found myself more and more...embarrassed, I suppose, when I hang out with her. She’s still fundamentally the same person, but I find some of her fashion and makeup choices a little cringeworthy, and sometimes feel a little bit of secondhand embarrassment when she talks to my other friends or when we’re making small talk with strangers on trips.

I know this sounds pretty vague, so here’s a concrete example. In airports, I’ll wear a pretty basic athleisure outfit to stay comfortable but look like I made a basic effort with my appearance while out in public. Think sneakers, leggings, a t shirt and jacket, etc. Nothing fancy, basically. She’ll wear a backpack shaped like a giant pokeball, have her hair in a sort of lopsided spiky anime-inspired style, and usually be wearing some sort of slutty French maid outfit or something else inspired by loli fashion. It draws a lot of attention. She’s mentioned in the past that her mother hates her outfits and will ask her to wear normal things on vacation.

WIBTA if I also asked her to dress a little more normally when we go on trips together?

Tbh, I feel like I am and should just support my oldest friend no matter what, but I can’t help feeling a little embarrassed for her whenever she goes out dressed as she is.

I had a friend who pulled the same kinda poo poo. Always wore ostentatious hats, super loud clashy colors, terrible hair dyes, and even had a feathered fan that she would elaborately fan herself with when the conversations got too 'hot'. Those hot conversations were about Harry Potter, by the way. She would always bring that poo poo up, and it would always be the worst poo poo you've ever heard.

we are not friends anymore.
