The man has been dating his girlfriend for three years.
The man admitted that his girlfriend has been dealing with body image issues and is insecure about her weight but he doesn’t care as he finds her beautiful.
From having raw food and juice cleanses to baby food, strange diets come in and out of fashion. A man on social media shared that he is considering leaving his partner as her new choice of diet is enough to “disgust” him. The man shared his story on Reddit to seek help from the internet.
In the post, he wrote that he is a 25-year-old man and has been dating his girlfriend for the past three years. He shared that in their relationship, they have been healthy, have worked out together and even tried out new diets together.
The man shared that he had been scrolling his Instagram and came across the post promoting the carnivore lifestyle. Notably, this lifestyle involves eating massive quantities of raw meat, eliminating anything that is not meat.
He noted that he is not a dietician and is a newbie when it comes to nutrition but this diet “truly disgusts” him. But for the past few days, his girlfriend has been acting strangely. He admitted that his girlfriend has been dealing with body image issues for her whole life and is insecure about her weight but he doesn’t care as he finds her beautiful.
“For the past few days, her body image has been getting worse. Many times she’s been pointing out negative things about her body, has been hesitant to eat supper, has been searching for many diets etc… I am Worried, I’ve always checked on her and encouraged her to eat but many times she’s been cold and distant,” he added.
The man also revealed that recently he found out that his girlfriend had purchased a flight out of state without telling him. When he confronted her about it, she said that she had been scrolling on Instagram and had been watching a lot of those posts promoting the carnivore diet and had booked a flight to go to a meet and greet of a dietician promoting the diet.
The man said that the worst part of this is that his girlfriend has been following the diet and even snuck in chunks of raw meat in his diet to “convert” him into the lifestyle. Upon the revelation, he was very angry and had a huge fight with her.
“The last thing she told me is that she is 100 per cent certain with her change of diet and decided to leave on her own,” he added. He concluded the video by asking if he is an a*****e (AITA) for wanting to leave her after so many years.
The internet users have encouraged the boy to leave his girlfriend after she started messing with his food without his knowledge. “Sometimes breaking up is the best solution. This is just about your situation. NTA,” one of the users said. Another person added, “I was thinking you’re being kind of harsh until you got to the ‘sneaking raw meat in’ to your food. Someone that will do something like that is unsafe for you and themselves.” Some of the comments also mentioned that what she did was wrong but she also needs help.
