I mean, if your options are eat Korean food or don't, why would you not?

It absolutely has made my day. The OP's character is genius and the I'm-crying-while-type-about-oregano tone is being maintained very seamlessly.

He is not saying Korean food is not part of a diverse spectrum.


I mean, he's clearly dealing with some mental health issues, it's not really about the diversity of Korean food or whether Korean food includes enough cream and oregano.

Anyway, it's almost certainly a troll and I haven't laughed so hard at one in a long time.


He's dealing with the wife's mental health issues.

Why are people focusing on the type of food? It's not about Korean food. It's about a spouse who won't compromise and whines when she doesn't get her way. That's the problem that needs to be dealt with, probably in therapy, since the natural solution - take turns picking where we eat when we go out -- has obviously not worked.

The wife being unable suck it up and eat, without whining, at a not-first-choice cuisine a couple times a month is a serious personality problem and no doubt shows up in controlling behavior in other parts of their life.


Well, we don't know what's going on, but based on the hysterical tone of the OP and his claims that he needs to eat more cream and oregano to be happy... I suspect, well, I suspect it's a troll. But let's say it's not, I suspect we're dealing with someone who has some issues. By the sounds of it—but we'd really need to hear from the wife—he seems like he's silent in person, and weepy and talking of divorce here.

If every Friday night she says, "hey, let's go treat ourself to some delicious korean food" and he silently nods and follows her to the car, I'm sorry I have no sympathy. And, really, I can't imagine many scenarios where a woman is going to violently force a man into a car, drive him to a korean restaurant, forcefully drag him inside and, in front of all the other customers and staff, force feed him delicious Korean food. He's clearly playing along, and not speaking up for himself. My question is, does his wife even KNOW that he wants oregano and cream and not bulgogi?

I think he secretly has enormous resentment towards his wife, is stifling it and it's all coming bubbling out... the cream is the straw that broke the camel's back, to mix our metaphors.

Clearly you have access to the internet so you would be able to order takeout from a second place so I’m actually feeling concerned for your safety being unable to do so.

So we need to arrange a wellness check as it seems you are being held hostage and don’t have the ability to cook or fend for yourself?


lol

just go to some of the area's best korean restaurants and look for the guy sobbing "I wish I had some cream and oregano!"

lol


The cream and oregano poster.

Not only a low IQ dimwit with zero reading comprehension, but a psychopath to boot.


You said you wanted different food and specifically that Korean food was not diverse enough for you because it didn't use enough cream, oregano or basil. Sorry we tried to help understand your weird food hangup.

You sound like a big baby. Make the reservations, do the shopping, cook what you want, find a place that serves multiple types of food in addition to the Korean food she wants.

She does not control what you eat unless you allow her to, and you don't have to divorce to change that.

Korean restaurants aren’t exactly romantic. Dh often makes reservations for date night. How did you date? Often men plan the date or at least some of the dates. Did she only eat Korean food when you were dating?

I'm Korean, and if the person I am dating doesn't like a variety of foods, especially Korean food, that would be a deal breaker. My spouse, who is European, feels the same way -- they like diverse foods, and when they first tried Korean food with me, they loved it. If they hated it, I think that would've been a deal breaker for me because I love Korean food.

Thankfully, we bonded over food; we still do. We are foodies. When we were dating, we ate out a lot at all different kinds of restaurants, from pricey restaurants to hole in the wall places. We still do this when we eat out, but it's not very often anymore.

Everyone has their preference of what they like the most, but I too would get sick of one style of food if that's all I ate. I like variety (spice of life, as they say).

But, I still think OP (if not a troll), needs to grow a pair.

This is the key. OPs wife doesn't tolerate other choices

Look, I like Korean food, don't get me wrong, but I just do not want to have it for the 1000th time in a row. Yes, I have utter contempt for my wife who gets to have 99% of the control over what goes into our mouths and what I get to eat for dinner. Maybe once in a while I want pizza? Maybe every so often I want something as simple as a damn burger? I love Middle Eastern, Turkish, Greek, etc. types of foods, but because she doesn't like it we are forced to never eating it. Meanwhile I let her have Korean 100% of the time whenever she wants even though it is probably ranked 15th on my list for most favorite types of cuisines.


I am getting sick of it to the point I am considering a divorce. Am I crazy? The controlling freak nature she has over my dietary choices has gotten intolerable. Maybe I want more food diversity in my life besides Asian food. I want to punch a hole through a wall I am so angry over this issue.
