[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is so much fun.

Anyway no not divorce worthy.

“Honey, I’m not interested in eating out for Korean again. We can either take turns selecting the restaurant - and it’s my turn now - or we can stay in for a date night and order from different places.”

No no and no. [b]Just be firm and ignore any drama. You aren’t asking for too much and she has to learn to compromise.[/b][/quote]

+1 it's totally reasonable to take turns picking where you eat. If she won't do that and/or spends every non-Korean meal whining about it like a child then it's time for marriage therapy.

Everyone has to give a bit and the PPs laughing at OP or saying he should be happy to only go to Korean restaurants are missing the big picture -- a wife who won't compromise or consider her DH's feelings about something that's really easy for a grown-up to compromise about. I can't imagine DH or I unilaterally deciding that the other never gets to pick the restaurant. Yeah, it's a small thing but also a regular occurrence in life and so easy to just take turns.

Is she this inflexible about the big parts of life too?[/quote]

Exactly.  She needs to stop whining and complaining when theygo to a non-Korean restaurant.  If she can't do that, then no more meals in restaurants together.  Is she on the autism spectrum?  That's the one variable that might make her behavior a little more understandable.  [/quote]
