AITA for refusing to eat my bf's food?
I'm quite eager when It comes to sports (I do mainly fencing, yoga and tennis/badminton, but I try to do something different now and then.) I never really cared for the diet that much, probably as I eat relatively healthy save it for my sweet tooth.
My bf has it covered all. He playes ice-hockey, so there slightly different "expectations" and he really likes eating proper, gains that, gains this.
When we met my eating habits were a big surprise for him. He tried to "correct" them (like trying to minimalise my snack before sleep), but it either didn't work out (I couldn't sleep with my stomach being empty) or I refused. Eventually he agreed it was a bit stupid and we had giggles about the absurdity.
Last winter I suffered from n__ty pneumonia and then, right before corona my cat almost bit off my finger, it got swollen because of the infection and my whole forearm was immovable. I could only walk, but since my lungs were still sensitive, it wasn't the greatest option either.
I was grumpy and since I tend to eat a lot when pi**ed off, I decide to cook different meals and eat more healthy? Lots of veggies and vegan/plant based recipes etc. I sneaked some cake here and there, but it wasn't that frequent.
As soon as I my hand started to like me again, I slowly began exercising, switching to my old way of eating. Instead of me, my bf was now the grumpy one. He supposed I'd stick to the old "diet" for enternity. We didn't see each other much, not living together, so he couldn't do much.
The trouble is since the restrictions loosed up, my bf's really nagged me. Immensely. When shopping alone he doesn't buy anything sweet for me, when we go together I almost have to explain every single item I put there. Leading to me shopping alone and barely eating at his place, as he cooks ultra protein thingies, and I don't really eat meat.
My blood was boiling when...
