[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Saying "I hate pie" means that you think that your preference should trump that of everyone else present who might actually like pie. It basically says - if you keep making something I have told you I hate you are not respecting me and therefore no one should have pie. Much better to just decline and be polite. We eat fruit at almost every meal. I would be annoyed if my MIL came in making a proclamation about how she hates fruit, expecting me to no longer serve any fruit when she is in the house. [/quote] What? That's crazy. If someone had a preference, they are allowed to share it. It is not a demand that that item no longer be served. She is not saying that the sight or smell of pie is repulsive to her, just that she, personally would not like a slice, thanks. [/quote]
