Embarrassing. Not like I'm in the habit of attending events just to eat. But you know that feeling, watching others get served while your table is left empty, e can pain.

See those events where invitations are thrown to the general public? Avoid them to avoid stories that touch cheesy.

If I'm not giving food I'll feel I'm a nobody. Well it happens.

That's one of the worst thing that can happen to any body in an occasion, even though u have enough in ur house.

Especially occasions that involve long journeys, eat well before going and even take snacks and water along. More so if going with kids.

At times the food is served late after hunger don wire everybody finish.

Of late many people don't even eat on occasions o. They just get take-way packs and take home.

Dem go give the next person wey sidon near me. The thing dey happen steady sotay I begin feel like say dem do me something from village so when I dey go occasion, I no com dey expect say something go reach my hand. It became a part of me and I always carried that feeling, which made stop expecting stuff from ppl at a very young age. Anyway, baba don get rep sotay na me dem dey first ask "oga wetin u wan chop"? I go jus rub my small bia-bia, talk say "do u have beer and meat" grin

Well I no dey chop for parties. I make sure i eat to my satisfaction before i step out for any occasion.

I once witnessed where a man was embarrassed by his friend’s wife because the food they served him has no meat and the man had complained that why would they serve him food without meat/fish, only the wife to snap at him saying ”Mr man why are you embarrassing yourself because of meat”
That would be the last day that friend go ever see me for e house till I die.

Food is an African culture.

You can not separate food from most Nigerian and other African although there are exceptions to this perception.

At the same time the chemistry will show in their face if one is not given food in a ceremony.

Certainly, one will fill being under valued.
"the chemistry will show in their face". I can't bear the laf again o!

I once went to an occasion brought the biggest gift In the wedding.

But rice, I no see talkless of bottle water.

To me if u are going to occasion with the intention of eating, just forget spraying of money or giving any gift. Just go there with that intention eat ur food thank d celebrant then give him the thing u have for him then go.


U can't go to an occasion spray 10k or more and be begging the people sharing food that u have not eaten, simply just go greet the celebrant carry ur 10k go any fast food chop to your fill and thank me later

When you attend an occasion, your intention should be to celebrate with the celebrants and NOT to eat . . .Get the purpose of attending right and you will be fine . . .Grow the mentality of what can i give to them and NOT what can i take, it will help you!
How do u celebrate without eating? Isn't eating a vital part of celebration? People go jus dey run their mouth like say dem leave their brain for 2019. Food no dey important na im Jesus turn water to wine.

For a pal I won't even wait for the food before I leave. As for family, omo momsi go always ensure I get a cooler or two grin.

In essence "no connection no chewing"! grin

It is hard not to be happy when not served food in an occasion. I used to feel bad but I have trained myself in such a way that when I attend a function , I hardly eat. I don't even have the mindset of eating when I get to the venue. An incidence at Ilesha, in Osun State changed my perception about eating in a function.

Many years ago, I attended a wedding party at Ilesha, I was on the same table with one older man (I perceive he was rich), we were served assorted food, meats and drinks apparently because of the man. To my consternation, the man ate only one meat. Initially he did not want to eat anything but he was prevailed upon to eat somethingg. While the others and I on the table devoured the meal.

The incident on that day made me to change my perception about eating in a party. So when I attend a function, I would have eaten well at home or in an eatery. This always give me a kind of satisfaction

You have to deliberately outgrow this. I have attended many weddings long time ago without eating which naturally makes one feel bad.

Now I eat well before I go anywhere like I'm not expecting any food there.

If not for ojukokoro and longer throat; why do you want to eat at every social gathering? This is how some of you eat food cooked with "Destiny transfer" juju at occasions (apology to Pastor Odukoya of MFM church).

One time I invited my gf with her friend to a communal party at my friends and the chicken and chips pack conveniently remained one for us three to share.
But
That kind thing no fit happen for this party

I see nothing wrong with the thread.

Its purpose is to elicit humour. Don't take life too seriously.

Thanks for your care, I noticed it 6 years ago when I was in school...none that I know of for now. but I was told to take pain reliever after eating rice or coat it with red oil before eating, I have tried the later but sometimes I still experience the pain.
Ok, you keep doing your research though. You will find a solution soon. All the best

Celebration doesn't necessarily means eating, celebrating with someone really means to be happy and joyous for them. In a developed world, people will bring you food and wine to celebrate with you ( i am not saying ALL). So once again, get your purpose of celebrating with someone straight and you will never be disappointed again.
Why NOT eat in your own house before going to a party, or on your way to the party, stop by a store and take with you a bottle of nice wine for others to enjoy?

I will; step out to a good eatery and buy takeaway and bring it back to my seat at the event and start munching.

No food for you at a social event? What do you do?
