[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We go out to dinner quite frequently with another couple. Generally my husband, the other husband, and I just get an entree, but the other wife often gets an appetizer. When asked if she’d like it to come out first or with the rest of the food, she always requests that it come out first. This leads to the rest of us sitting around watching her eat as we wait for our dinner. I think this is fairly oblivious behavior and I’m a little over it. I think between friends I can say nicely, “Frances, do you mind if your app comes with the rest of the food? I’m pretty hungry!”  My husband thinks this is rude and I shouldn’t say anything. I think if stated cheerfully it’s a perfectly polite request and [b]will gently nudge her to realize that maybe making everyone else wait for their food isn’t the most thoughtful behavior.[/b] What do you think?[/quote] How is she making you wait for your food?  [/quote]

Ordering an appetizer obviously delays the preparation of the entrees.[/quote]  If OP wants her food to come out together with her friends' app then she should say "can you bring my entree out at the same time as Becky's appetizer".   That's her own fault for not speaking up.[/quote]
