OH sabotage of batch cooking!

ah i see Purplekylie. TBH it would make me less likely to want to get physical with them tho not sure id go so far as to break it off. Kinda hard for me to comment on this as in my experience I have never been involved with anyone I find physically attractive.

My Dad does this - Mums best cake is homemade Mars bar cake, but to make it the Mars bars have to be cold. Guaranteed she will buy 6, put them in the fridge, come to make the cake, and they've all gone!

Marsbar cake?! Gonna need THAT recipe pretty please!!

urm... i hope you meant the opposite of that lol! Not much of a relationship if you don't find the person attractive

:rotfl:That's where I hide things. Also I hide eggs in the wine rack - my son (almost 22, does weight training) eats millions (feels like) of them. Am suprised he doesn't resemble Humpty Dumpty.

I have a teenage son so the safest place for goodies is the tumble drier. It would never occur to him to go near it for ANY reason!!!

Fruglaista no offence but some ppl just prefer slim partners . no different than a man who prefers blondes or a woman who likes men with hairy chests.. does it occur to you that there is nothing shallow in ppl like this? I am not ashamed to say that I only find slim men attractive. Being slim myself I have never felt it appealling to have some big fat man squashing down on top of me etc.. sorry just a personal preference which we are all entitled to have.

Thank you Reverbe for putting it very clearly.

Just because we like/value/love someone as a person doesnt automatically mean that we "fancy" them in the first place - or will continue to "fancy" them if they have let themselves go. I can perfectly well understand still feeling exactly the same for someone as one used to - but the fancying has gone because they HAVE let themselves go - and obviously, too, one wouldnt be happy at thinking "Well I didnt let myself go - therefore I deserve that they hadnt let themselves go either...".

I've had other women admit to me that they've found themselves "making excuses" because their partner had let themselves go and that they've "tried" but they just couldnt and were just hoping that the partner would realise and diet back down to normal.

******************

Anyway - I think thats enough of a detour on this thread. So I would appreciate it myself if everyone else ignores Frugalista trying to find (yet another) way to have a go at me - again....

CAN WE ALL GET BACK ON TOPIC PLEASE.

I don't fancy my hubby any less even though he has gained about a stone since we were first together.

I admit that I am keeping an eye on his weight, but that's purely for health reasons.

My darling boyfriend, who I don't even live with yet, is like a food hoover given half the chance!!

When I'm making my tea & he has just come in I offer him some. He declines so I offer a quick easy alternative in case it's personal taste and he declines.

Two hours later in bed he suddenly goes "What can I have to eat babe, I'm really hungry?". I suggest crisps and treats (from the treat tin) but he says he doesn't fancy it and then asks if we have 'thins' (low fat sandwich rolls). Of course we have thins because I have them for lunch most days and he proceeds to eat 3 or 4 of them toasted as a snack. They're too expensive to be a snack! And if he eats the crisps or treats he sits and eats 3 packs of crisps or half a pack of biscuits. Even if he eats dinner with me there's still the inevitable hunger 2 hours later in bed. Where does it all go? I don't understand why blokes feel a gap between meals is time for a mini meal rather than just a snack!

He was telling me the other day that when he was younger his Mum would make HM Egg Mayonnaise or buy a tub and he would eat it all while she was at work or he'd use a whole family size tin of tuna to make tuna mayonnaise just for him so his Mum stopped buying it and if she did and he ate it she'd make him pay for it. He says his stopped doing it (because it's so expensive - what a surprise!!) but I am already worried about when we live together and all the food becomes fair game to eat.

roz perhaps whatever happens in those 2 hrs in bed is making him so incredibly ravenous...?? play scrabble instead x

PS when you live together do the same as his mum.. she stopped putting up with it so why should you?
