I wish that would have worked here, but he would simply not eat what I preferred to cook and would just go out for a McDonald's. I cook 2 different meals on most nights, in self defense, because I won't stoop to his pitiful level of taste. :-) -- Wayne Boatwright ------------------------------------------- Saturday, 05(V)/03(III)/08(MMVIII) ------------------------------------------- Countdown till Memorial Day 3wks 1dys 17hrs 10mins ------------------------------------------- 'Friends help you move.

If I didn't cook for him differently, it wouldn't matter to him. He'd just find something else to eat. >>> Within 3 weeks of moving in with me, all kids and all adults were >>> eating the same food........ and no-one died!!

No, it really doesn't, Peter. There's absolutely nothing that he would do for me, apart from the food thing. > FFS!!

Maybe I'm making it sound worse than it is. It's not a hardship for me. Anything he likes to eat just takes a warming up or a quick grilling. What I make for myself takes a lot more effort.

You don't actually know us. When I cook a meal we usually share whatever meat I choose to make unless it's something he clearly doesn't like, as well as at least one of the vegetables that we both like. I willl make a second vegetable for each of us. It's no big deal. If I want Chinese I have it, and he may go and have a McDonald's. I don't care. Other similar situations, too. I don't cater to him as much as I may have implied. Everyone has likes and dislikes. For example, I absolutely detest oysters and squid (unless it's fried). There's no way in hell anyone could make me eat them. -- Wayne Boatwright ------------------------------------------- Saturday, 05(V)/03(III)/08(MMVIII) ------------------------------------------- Countdown till Memorial Day 3wks 1dys 10hrs 40mins ------------------------------------------- He's dead, Jim.
