We all have that one friend who loves to share their food, but what happens when it becomes too much to handle? Meet our 33-year-old protagonist, who’s been best friends with her 31-year-old, obese buddy since childhood. They’ve been through thick and thin together (pun intended), but there’s one strange habit that’s causing some tension between them: the friend’s constant pushing of food on her slim companion. After years of saying nothing, our protagonist finally snaps and tells her friend she can’t eat as much as her. But did she go too far? Let’s dive into the story and find out! ️‍♀️

A Friendship on the Line: Food-Pushing Gone Too Far?

After years of tolerating her best friend’s strange habit of pushing food on her, our protagonist finally snaps and tells her friend she can’t eat as much as her. This leads to hurt feelings, accusations of insult, and even their husbands getting involved. Was she too harsh, or is it time for her friend to face the truth? ‍♀️ As the internet weighs in on this delicate situation, one thing is clear: it’s time for these lifelong friends to have a long-overdue conversation about this issue.

ESH (and I am including many on this comment thread). Food pushers suck. It’s a boundary violation. But you seem very eager to highlight your friends fatness. Would this behavior be more acceptable coming from a thin person? From your language, it seems pretty clear that you have some disdain for your friend/her fatness and couldn’t figure out a way to say no to her without getting insulting and bringing up what sounds like her possibly disordered eating habits. I know I will get downvoted into oblivion because Reddit sure loves to hate on fat people. But whatever. It’s also weird to me that this has bothered you for 25 years and you have never talked to her about it, but have speculated on why she might be doing it. Why not just talk to her??? You could have communicated it better to her by saying “It makes me really uncomfortable when you push food on me. Please when I say no just let that be the end of that conversation. Maybe you think you are being nice but it actually really stresses me out and upsets me. Please respect my boundaries.”
