Honestly, I just found out about this today, and I feel this huge anvil lifted off of my chest. I'm 29 and my boyfriend loves ethnic foods. There's an Indian restaurant next to my work and it smells amazing, but all of it just looks like goop. Different textured goop.
When I was little, I used to love peanut butter sandwiches, and my parents made the mistake of saying "Well try this for dinner, and if you don't like it, you can have a peanut butter sandwich." Now, because I liked peanut butter sandwiches, I'd lie and say I tried it and didn't like it.
As an adult, I am now incredibly weary of all foods, feeling like I've tried it and not liked it. I literally only try new things off of other people's plates as well. Why would I pay for something at a restaurant that may be great, but what if I don't like it? Now I'm paying for something I don't like AND I'm still hungry.
Thank you for giving me a voice and more confidence.
