A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I was quietly admiring my boyfriend from outside the kitchen as he made us dinner, only to witness him drop a load of spaghetti on the floor, swear, then scoop it all up and place it back on the plate. FML

Thanks a lot
Today, my boyfriend was serving dinner, and decided to circle the table with my son's plate while making UFO noises. My son grabbed at the plate and spilled it, making a huge mess. They both decided that I should clean it up. FML

Today, I saw my 32-year-old boyfriend of 4 years pick his nose and eat it. The booger in question was attached to his nose and he sucked it out spaghetti-style. He then tried to kiss me. I still feel my stomach churning. FML

Today, my idiot boyfriend, who thinks he's an outdoorsman, made sauce from mushrooms he'd foraged. I refused to eat it. He got upset and had two helpings. He's now in bed, whining about how bad he feels. Stupid dumbass. FML

Today, I was so sick that I was puking and had the runs. While on the toilet, I yelled for my boyfriend to get me a bowl to puke in. As I did so, I saw that a ton of it was forming on the floor in dots. My boyfriend had given me a spaghetti strainer. FML

Anger management classes going well?
Today, my boyfriend's 12 year-old son was making such loud and disgusting sounds while eating ramen noodles that it took every ounce of my self-control not to punch him. FML

Today, I realized just how spoiled and immature my boyfriend is when I asked him several times what he’d like for dinner. Getting no answer, I made steak, potatoes and salad. He then sulked and refused to eat it, since he wanted spaghetti and meatballs instead. FML

Today, my parents finally invited my boyfriend over for dinner. Everything was going great until my mother asked him his profession. He stuffed his mouth full of lasagna, snorted, and then responded, "I clean shit for a living." FML

Did he leave the mess? Or did he clean up after himself and you are complaining about nothing?

Everyone comes with characteristics that we like, those we tolerate, and a few things that are intolerable. OP, you have to decide if this is important to you - As is, don't count on being able to train BF into eating neatly. In the meantime avoid all foods with noodles... It's sad in a way, but not everyone gets the training as a child or young adult to avoid being a potential unappetizing embarrassment at mealtimes. And by the time they become an adult, they are sometimes unwilling or unable to change. Being a sloppy eater isn't in any sense the worst thing a person can be. And it's possible that they could learn to eat more properly if lovingly instructed - But that's not always the case.
