Lol, babe just dodged a bullet.
This man will grow up to be like one of my uncle who measures food for his wife and kids whenever they want to cook, he measures as well anytime he is travelling, No the man wasn't poor, that was just his attitude.

Well was rather inconsiderate of her to descend on the second fish. That's a sign of self-centeredness and yes little things matter, sometimes they serves as clues to bigger flaws. However, the man should have been more focused on the possible greedy/ selfish character possessed by the lady other than his ego/ respect.
But the lady ate the first meat and descended on half of the fish.

Asking the OP what he wanted since that was their first time eating together and he was the host wouldn't hurt.

I agree that very little things are a manifestation of bigger ones.

Girl: lacks tact and inconsiderate
Guy: Egoistic and 'typical Nigerian man' grin

Both bad news in my opinion.

Imagine a plate of soup that comprises of two cow meat and a single fish tail....
I was watching her, no permission was requested from me before she took the first meat, yet I ignored, before I knew it, she's about dividing the fish tail into two so as to take it


He did say she was trying to take half. Which implies that she was aiming to share it equally. I don’t see greed there.
She just assumed since there’s two of them, splitting in half would be appropriate.
She failed to ask him what his opinion is. You know that in many Nigerian homes, the older party (or in this case ‘superior’ party) decides who gets what and how much they get.

Me that like feeding my girl like a baby, I'll even be happy seeing her consume those meat from my plates. There's a special kind of satisfaction that comes from seeing my girl feed well, especially from same plates with me!

lovely! smiley
my family observed the same behavior in my significant other and it's what made them love him wink
but it is mutual since I believe that taking good care of one other is an expression of love and a pleasure, abi? smiley

Where is it in the constitution, Bible, Qur'an that meat should be eaten after the food and not before?

Little things count. Don't wait till you make millions before she respects you.
So she should have said "please can i eat meat?" cheesy

It is better to eat in separate plates to avoid petty imagined disrespect.

That's why I said she lacked tact and was inconsiderate.

She had not known the guy well and asking jokingly would have solved the whole issue.

The guy is bad news to me anyways.

Someone who can tell you to stand up while eating because you ate fish without his permission would slap the person if she disagreed with him.

She has to be smart and eat as much during the boiling, frying and sauce making process- like taste, like taste you eat to your satisfaction! Whatever you dish out during the eating period, let him eat it alone grin. Say thanks babes I'm going vegan if offered some.

She was eating her own share, one meat and half fish. Nothing wrong with that.

I think his anger is that. . .
1. She ate them before finishing her meal, which is silly. I mean we were all brought up to eat the meat last but is that really ideal? I 'force' my kids to eat their protein first because if they wait till they finish their meal, they will be too full to eat the meat. And we all know how vital protein is to children's health. Bottom line is. . . . to each his own!

2. She didn't take permission . . come on!!!

This is his girlfriend, and possibly future wife. . Not his help!
