“I (28f) have been with my boyfriend (36f) for a year and we moved in together about 4 months ago. One of the first things I noticed about my boyfriend was that he never really ate vegetables.”
“He would sometimes eat them if we were out at a restaurant and they came as part of his meal,” she explained.
“But he never ate them when I cooked for him.”
“Originally, I thought that maybe my cooking was the problem so I asked him if he enjoyed my food and he told me he loves my cooking,” she wrote.
He wasn’t cooking for himself, either.
She explained that when she wasn’t making his food, he still avoided all veggies.
“On nights I didn’t cook for him, he ate exclusively frozen foods and never ate the vegetables in those either,” she wrote.
“Naturally, he has some health issues,” she explained. “Vitamin deficiencies etc.”
He didn’t connect his health to his diet. “He had phrased it to me as if he was somehow just genetically unlucky.”
“I believed it for a while because I don’t know how that stuff works,” she wrote.
“But eventually it became clear to me it’s because he voluntarily eats a vegetable like once a month.”
