Man Confesses to Developing New Appetite Due to Girlfriend‘s Eating Habits, Sparks Online Debate
SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA – A South Korean man is seeking advice online after noticing a change in his own eating habits, attributing it to the dining behavior of his girlfriend. Identified as mr. A, the man detailed a recent incident and growing pattern where his girlfriend’s excessive ordering and consumption of food leaves him feeling self-conscious and, surprisingly, increasingly hungry.
The situation came to a head last weekend at a Chinese restaurant, where Mr. A’s girlfriend ordered Jjambbong (spicy seafood noodle soup) and a small portion of sweet and sour pork. When Mr. A attempted to order additional dishes, she questioned if it was “too much.” Despite only eating four mouthfuls of the Jjambong, she then complimented him, saying, “You ate well today. You ate well.” Later, after Mr. A stopped eating,claiming the food didn’t taste good,she ordered a bowl of rice and finished it entirely.
Mr. A expressed feeling “dirty” and “embarrassed” by the situation, especially due to the presence of other diners. He confessed to developing a “greedy appetite that I never had before,” even finding himself wanting to eat more despite already being full. He questioned whether he was becoming a “glutton.” The couple ultimately added one bowl of rice to two servings of meat, fried it, and left the restaurant.
Online commenters were quick to weigh in,with many suggesting the issue extends beyond food. Several responses pointed to a lack of consideration and respect in the girlfriend’s behavior, with one user asking, “How long are you going to meet her without even being able to tell her what she wants to eat?” Others described the behavior as either “insane level of gluttony” or a fundamental personality flaw, suggesting it would be “almost impossible to fix.” The incident, reported by News1.kr, highlights a growing discussion about relationship dynamics and the frequently enough-unspoken tensions surrounding shared meals and differing appetites.
