My ex hated bananas (yes, the fruit) to the point that no one was allowed to eat them around her. She did not just dislike the fruit she hated everything having to do with bananas and banana flavor- chocolate banana, strawberry banana, smoothies with banana in them- all of it. A banana in her presence would make her turn up her nose in disgust. As a devoted partner I gave up the fruit for the whole year we were together. Even when she wasn’t in my presence I felt bad for eating them, like somehow she’d know!
After we broke up I realized how weird her food hatred was, and that is was crazy I went along with it too. It’s one thing to be respectful of your significant other’s eating preferences, it’s another to totally stop eating something you like.
One of the joys of being single- eat whatever you want!!
