Her Fiancé Touched Her Food The Other Night While They Were Out To Dinner, So She Got Mad, Took His Plate, And Said She Should Get To Eat His Meal Instead

Do you get extremely grossed out when other people touch or pick up your food?
It’s not an unreasonable thing to get upset about, as these days, we have to be super conscious of germs. Still, some people get angry when someone fusses about touching food.
One woman’s fiancé’s hand touched her food the other night while they were out at dinner, so she took his plate and said she should eat his dinner instead.
She’s 26-years-old, and her boyfriend is 32. He’s blind, and for some reason, they’ve always had difficulty eating out at restaurants together. Whenever they do, her fiancé always wants her to order the same thing as him.
“If we’re having dinner out and I order [something] else, he’d instantly get upset and accuse me of treating him as less than when I just have different taste in foods,” she explained.
“I’d just eat what he eats to keep the peace, but since he clearly doesn’t trust me, he’d randomly touch my plate to see if I’m having the same dish.”
This behavior from her fiancé has caused some major frustration, and as a result, they’ve gotten into some arguments because of it.
A few nights ago, they went out to dinner the other night, and she ordered the same thing as him. But when the food came out, her fiancé appeared to be uncomfortable. He refused to say anything, and then, as she went to pick up her fork, he extended his arm and touched the food on her plate with his hand.
Her fiancé quickly moved his hand and began apologizing before he began to try to excuse his behavior. But it was clear to her that he was making sure they were eating the same thing again.

“I lost it on him,” she said.
“I felt so grossed out, and there was no way I could eat the food after he touched it. He tried to get me to drop it, saying I shouldn’t be grossed out by his hand and that I overreacted.”
Then, she took her fiancé’s plate and told him she was taking his untouched dinner. He became very mad and tried to get her to give him the plate back, telling her to be “rational,” but she refused.
They got into a massive fight, and at the end of the night, he had a friend pick him up so he could spend the night at his place instead of theirs. Then, he began spamming her with texts, telling her she was pathetic and childish.
His friend sided with her fiancé and accused her of trying to control him.
“The problem is magnified now with him wanting an apology and me refusing to give him one,” she added.
“My parents think I should have more patience and that this is just typical ‘love spats’ between us, but I’m not sure.”
Should she feel bad for taking her fiancé’s dinner after he grabbed hers?
