Is this The Bear?
That episode gives me anxiety just thinking about it
Is that not the standard childhood home?
Well now I know how to spell her handle after hearing her spell it a thousand times on cbb
Not to keep harping on it, but so relevant: watch The Bear. Specifically the first two seasons. Then you'll get why it's relevant. I promise it's worth it!
Even more specific try the "Fishes" episode. My wife told me stories of her family, aunts and uncles, holiday dinners and they remind me of the chaos of that episode. She agreed with it, knifes and all, except they used sharp ones and chasing others around the house, glad I never met them.
Then you get "Forks" and you've earned that shit. Though it broke me, too, just in a different way.
don't get with any women that do this.
No need to gender it ;)
Not forbidden either though, no?
Maybe not, but why would you?
Because it's tedious having to consider who might feel excluded, offended, or whatever else on every single innocent thought. I'm sure op didnt mean just women, it's okay to extrapolate without making a fuss each time.
I don't think anyone was making a fuss, we all know the force of habit. To me, it looked like a simple reminder.
If you don't want to spend that energy and time, will you at least accept the help of others pointing it out? It's okay to acknowledge when you're being thoughtless without getting defensive.
Do you yourself for some reason not do this?
don't play games like that in a relationship. Say what you mean. If you're feeling bad, say what's wrong, don't make your girlfriend/wife or husband/boyfriend play a guessing game, get right to the point and spell it out.
Sir, this is about cooking. Idk what autism nightmare you strawmanned in between
Nah it’s not just a romantic partner thing. It’s a toxic family thing. Good if you’ve never experienced it! As mentioned, The Bear episode The Fishes with Jamie Lee Curtis offers an exaggerated example.
If anyone down plays the food i'll downplay my compliment except my mum because even when she burnts the fuck out of the meal it still tastes good to me.
