Op I heard Ryan secret talk about it on the radio this morning. The argument is a spouse who would peel an orange which is a small ransom act is a successful relationship or something. I found a ny post article about it.

Yes, but I don’t like anyone peeling for me. I don’t like fingers all over my fruit

I’m a DH and of course I would. Can’t believe this is a question.

What is this about?

He always does

My DH would not. He generally eats no fruit and has an aversion to citrus smells/textures.

This has no bearing on the state of our relationship. He doesn’t hesitate to dive into other juicy, sloppy eating…

That’s not something he would typically ask me to do but if for some reason he asked me, I guess I would.

It’s not my default way to give him an orange though. He’s an adult.

In spite of his many faults, a great thing my husband does is buy ripe fruit and prepare them for the kids and I.

Us as well, then we do “The Godfather” orange peel face at each other and bust out laughing.

Yes

My dad picked crabs for my mom when she was still alive.

That’s a nice memory, isn’t it? My dad always refilled my mom’s coffee cup if he poured more for himself and he’d put the cream in hers too.

Yes. Of course. And I would for him. No questions asked.

slices for the win.

clementines are a type of orange.

Sort of. Oranges are a cross between a pomelo and mandarin. Clementines are a cross of an orange with a mandarin, so are really mostly mandarins.
