[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DDs bf always ordered steak whenever we would take DD and him out to eat (in the Before Times), so usually his meal cost a bit more than what hubs or I would order. The first time caught us off guard, and it rankled a bit. But then we considered: this kid has known food insecurity. Steak is a food that sparks joy for him--and that shows in the gracious thanks he gives whenever he's treated to it. To me, the issue not how much the bf orders but whether the bf shows any appreciation--in words or deeds. [/quote] Why would it "rankle" for him to accept your offer to take him to dinner, order off the menu, and say thank you? If steak "rankles," choose a less expensive restaurant. It's up to you as the host to not go somewhere where you don't want someone to literally order off the menu. Take him out for casual Mexican or something if you can't handle steak. [/quote]
