'Your wife sounds like a right royal pain': Wife insists picky eater husband to take half her food whenever she orders something she doesn't like, he gets fed up with her request

Picky eaters can be hard to be around. They have a right to be the way they are, but it can get annoying for the rest of us who will eat anything that is put in front of us. You know this if you have a picky eater in your family, especially around the holidays. Okay, basically, all potentially annoying behavior gets exacerbated around the holidays. If you're the hosting type, you probably put a lot of thought into your menus. You dream about what kind of food will impress your guests and express your creativity. But it can really throw a wrench in the plans if somebody in your party is a picky eater. We're talking about the type of picky where it's easier to list the things that they do eat instead of the things that they don't. This can be a real pain to have in your orbit. But it's part of life and part of dealing with people, and you have to take them as they come. But it's different when it's a distant cousin versus somebody you spend every day with.

What if your spouse, the person you probably spend every day with- at least the person with whom you eat the most meals- had a seriously limited diet?

Would this change the way you move through the world? One couple put this to the test after years of trying to make it work with each other.

While one of them was adventurous, ordering anything with no regard to whether or not they might like it, the other had a more conservative palette. But the problem arose when one of them kept insisting that they share food. If I’ve learned one thing about picky eaters during my time on earth, it’s that you’re better off letting them be. You don’t want to force anything on them, let alone stuff you yourself did not want. But that’s what this wife kept trying to do. Her husband had finally had enough and decided to set some boundaries. Read on to see what happened here and decide what you would have done.
Am I in the wrong for refusing to share my food with my wife after she repeatedly orders food she doesn't like?

Commenters agreed that she needed to reevaluate.
