He Lied To His Girlfriend, Who Is A Model, About His Homemade Pizza Being Gluten-Free And She Felt Totally Betrayed
This man’s girlfriend is twenty-four years old and works as a model. So, if you could not have guessed it, she has to stick to a super strict diet. In fact, she basically only eats food that is both organic and gluten-free.
He also lives with his girlfriend, and they normally take turns cooking dinner for each other. So, at first, he tried to look on the bright side and considered how her healthy eating habits might rub off on him.
“But, there are only so many times I can eat salads and sushi for dinner,” he said. Point taken.
Anyway, last week, he had reached his “breaking point” and needed to eat something with a bit more substance. And since he is Italian, he decided that homemade pizza would be the perfect thing to make.
“Now, I have made gluten-free versions before. But, I find that it tastes gross, so I went with regular white flour,” he explained.
And his plan was to cook and eat the pizza by himself before his girlfriend got home. Then, once she was ready to eat, he was going to make them both some Western omelets.
However, his plan fell apart when his girlfriend got home earlier than expected and caught him right as he was literally pulling the pizza out of the oven. On top of that, his girlfriend was so excited to eat pizza that he did not want to let her down.
“She was so surprised and happy that I made pizza for dinner that I did not have the heart to tell her it was not gluten-free,” he recalled.
So, he just went along with it and let his girlfriend have as much pizza as she wanted. He did not think it was that big of a deal, either– since it was not like his girlfriend had a gluten intolerance or anything.

However, a few days later, his girlfriend went looking for gluten-free flour in their kitchen and could not find any. So, she eventually confronted him about how he made the pizza, and he was forced to confess that it was never gluten-free.
She apparently got really upset that he lied to her about the meal and even accused him of being selfish and unsupportive of her career.
Still, though, he thinks it is insane to stick to such a restrictive diet so stringently. So, he tried to explain to his girlfriend that she is beautiful the way she is and that it is okay to eat “regular food” every now and then.
Then, he decided to bring up his concerns about her diet and cited how her modeling career was already moving along pretty successfully. But, his girlfriend did not see his concern as genuine care. Instead, she thinks that he is not being sympathetic to the high beauty standards that are expected of her.
So now, he is stuck in a pretty sticky situation. He is honestly concerned that his girlfriend does not allow herself any wiggle room in the diet department. At the same time, though, he is not sure if lying to her about the pizza being gluten-free was the wrong way to try and help her let loose.
Do you think good intentions are able to justify a lie or not? If you were his girlfriend, would you have gotten upset, too? How would you handle this situation?
