WOW! I can't believe I stumbled across this website today and now realize at age 45 that I'm not the only one dealing with this. Just last night, a friend mentioned to me that "we should do a lobster boil" and she immediately realized by the look on my face that I don't eat lobster (or any fish/seafood) She joked "wow, how are we friends?" and I know she didn't mean it to be rude but I've heard comments like that all my life. "how could you be from Cape Cod and not eat seafood?" "have you ever tried it?" etc. etc. Anyway, so glad to have found this website.
