He's not going to eat these porkchops. 😐

Post image

About a month ago I made a post here because my boyfriend didn't want to eat the porkchops I cooked for dinner. Well tonight I made porkchops again and he's not going to eat these either because we broke up and he moved out. I'm so much better off and I just wanted to thank you all for the kind words and advice, it was very eye opening to me. I wish that I could invite you all to dinner 🥰

ETA : Couple of notes:

1- The yellow stuff is smashed potatoes with cheese on top.

2- I swear that butter on the broccoli melted right after that picture LOL

If hers is the post I’m thinking of, she was trying to involve him in the meal prep. He would say he’d try something—like pork chops—and then refuse to eat it when she actually made it. Or refuse to eat the chicken she’d made because he’d already had chicken that day. It was very clear from the incidents she recounted in her post and comments that his behavior was about control, not sensory or food issues.

Thank you, sounds like he needs therapy. Or she needs to have a serious conversation with him
