He Took His Girlfriend Out To Eat But After She Ordered Spaghetti, He Left Her There By Herself
A 25-year-old guy currently lives with his girlfriend, whose name is Ally, and he really is in love with her.
The one thing he dislikes about Ally though is how she acts when eating, which he describes as not so lady-like.
Getting straight to the point, Ally is a loud eater, and when they do go out to have meals together, normally people around them don’t notice because the noise of the restaurant is louder than Ally’s eating.
There is a dish that Ally enjoys though that she eats so vigorously that there’s no way to hide the horror of her manners at the table.
“However, when Ally eats pasta, she slurps her noodles so loudly that people from other tables look,” he explained.
“It’s completely mortifying to hear people murmur about her loud slurping all the time. I know this might be normal in some cultures, but from where I’m from in the US, it looks really uncultured and bothers some people who are more sensitive to sounds.”
He has made an effort to get Ally to circularly twirl her pasta into a less offensively loud shape to consume, but Ally isn’t interested.
He then thought he could suggest to Ally to put tinier amounts of pasta in her mouth in an effort to keep things less in everyone’s face, but that has not worked either.
Ally simply does things the way that she does things and there’s no way around it.

The most problematic place he takes Ally out to is a restaurant that serves Italian food, and 9 out of 10 times Ally has embarrassed him with her eating habits.
“I know I shouldn’t care what other people think, but I agree with the patrons,” he said. “It’s disgusting. People are trying to enjoy a meal.”
Since Ally has embarrassed him so much at this particular place, he let her know that he was no longer going anywhere with her if she was going to choose to order pasta.
Well, on one recent evening, Ally insisted on going with him to this Italian restaurant, and he wanted to know what she would be ordering.
Ally promised to get something aside from spaghetti, so he thought they would be in the clear. They went out together, and he was upset when Ally took back what she said and placed an order for the very thing he hates to see her eat in public.
“I told the waitress I wouldn’t be needing anything, stood up, and walked to our car,” he continued.
“I relaxed in the car listening to a podcast until Ally came out a while later. She sat down and started giving me the silent treatment.”
After arriving home, Ally broke her silence and began shouting at him that he humiliated her in that restaurant. Ally fully expected him to apologize, but he wouldn’t. He was left thinking that maybe what he did was a bit outrageous.
Do you think so, or do you think he had every right to leave Ally to eat alone, knowing he would be embarrassed?
