I kept food from my wife. #shorts

Tell your wife to take the selfish behind to the Farmers Market grocery store or where and some fruit for herself. She should bring you some to apologize

[josephhurst]

NTA, If you literally have to HIDE food from your wife in order to Enjoy it, then I would ask WHY. Why does she feel so Entitled to Everything you bring home to STARVE YOU TO DEATH? To Starve you to the point where Childish Behavior like this is Necessary? Why does she think you have No Rights by comparison to hers?

[reefnrod]

Can't imagine being married to someone that doesn't respect you like that...

Btw if anyone is a fan of persimmon fruit it really comes down to how you like it: ripe or pudding consistency. My hubby doesnt eat them but if he sees some he will buy the ones that are the most ripe because he knows i like them like that. If I see mandarons are in season i get him a big bag just for him. Apples, Watermelon, bananas & strawberries for the kids snacks.

NTA, respect for your food is necessary to discuss in any household. It sucks to live with someone who always eats their stuff, then starts scrounging for anything else good they can find.

I also disagree. When i go shopping, I buy two kinds of food. Food for EVERYONE, and food for me and me only. Everyone in the house respects that.

[rogerhall]

She's NOT taking your appetite into consideration. Tell her to buy her own fruit from now on as she can't let yours alone.
Tell her to purchase and drink fruit juice as a supplement.

Tragic. Some people behave like whatever is yours is also mine, just because you are married. But having personal possessions, whether it's an inheritance, a savings account, or a bowl of fruit, is essential to your sense of security.

my ex wife was like this and it was a constant fight for about 2 months. i stopped leaving her left overs etc... she was livid at first until i said this is what you do all the time so i suggest you get used to it. took a month to break her.

Nta. If it was an easy to replace item it would be one thing, but this takes time to ripen to his liking. Not to mention that she doesn't like it, she just wants his food.
And he also clarified she finished her portion, got a second portion, and there should be other food she will like as well in the house.

[katemcbride]

You both have come from different situations with food availability. Your history has led you to emphasize even sharing and the pleasure of having it as you like it, individual likes. Your partner has a need to have food available she doesn't have to ask for or justify. No denial of food.
You need to explore these NEEDS as being that.

I'm middle child of 4 siblings. My husband is an only child. In my early marriage, he expect me to leave him some food, because his parents and family do that for him, while i just eat everything quickly like survival of the fittest because of my childhood. We need to eat quickly or my other siblings will eat it and honestly i thought he didn't want it because he didn't eat it right away. It's stupid and now i don't do that anymore 😂

[michellewallace]

That's not how it works lady. He literally kept them to get them how he wants and she knows she dislikes them smooshy. She's TA.

[nutellaandcrumpets]

I honestly hate that food system everyone in my house shares, mostly because if we don’t share food goes bad but you can always get more the next shop if it ran out quickly.
BUT if having separated food is how the set up has always been then she can’t expect that to suddenly change now. The system has been established tough beans

[HShoshana]

You have to let hachiya persimmons ripen to that point to eat them safely. If you try to eat a hachiya persimmon firm like a fuyu you can devlope a bezoar.

[jannatduffy]

Yours and mine in a marriage won’t last 😂

[RileySwininger-dc]

dude im gonna be honset i jave never heard of a persimmon until now

[Breenndda]

If you share the grocery bill then yes, all food is fair game. But considering she already ate her share then she can run to the market to get her own.

[mothertrucker]

She is selfish to the core. We share all our food but know each other’s weakness and would never take what’s theirs just to leave them with less. The wife is angry she’s got nothing left cause she’s quite the ogre who inhales everything out of fear hubby will eat even 1 even though he’s never done it. Now she accuses him of what she is. I already despise that woman

[DulceBarrera]

Nta, marriage takes time & work on both sides. She isnt considerate of his appetite or hos needs. Marriage is a union in unity. He takesthe time & effort to continuesly have the home well stocked with fruits to her liking but she can't respect his own treats for her own selfishness? Ehats even more troubling is she is willing to eat something she doesn't even like to prove a misguided point
