[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't you tell her, and not us? Not trying to be snarky. Let her know that this bothers you, but you enjoy meals with her. Then say something next time it happens. [/quote] Well, I'm afraid it will hurt her feelings. I have mulled over in my mind how to say it and really anyway I say it, her feelings are probably hurt. [/quote] I can't think of any way to say, "I know that you love talking about food, but I hate talking about food, so please don't." that won't result in hurt feelings. So your choices are: 1. Continue listening to her talk about food. 2. Avoid meeting her in any context that involves food (although even that might not work, if food is her hobby). 3. Tell her, and hope that the friendship is stronger than the hurt feelings. I'm not a big fan of talking about food either, especially talking about food while we're eating, so I do understand your feelings here.[/quote]
