Some woman allergic to germs. Normal?
-
I have come across some woman who are allergic to sharing meals and very particular about germs, for example my best friend's wife. Recently we went outing dinner, a gang of friends, then as being courteous, I distributed all the cups, chop sticks and plates to everybody as they were on my side. But my best friend's wife, she took back all the chop stick, porcelain spoon and plates and took her own instead. She didn't want to share the dishes with us, so she called her own separate meal instead.
I didn't want to take notice of her behaviour but I say I have come across some women who behave like this, if I react, I think I would be in for some flaming from her. So I decided not to be sensitive and just enjoy the dinner and company of friends.
So I am asking y'all, if you have come across any of your best friend's gf or wife who behave like this? They like don't want to eat out of the plates you give them because they are very sensitive about germs. In western culture, probably some ang moh would be offended but I suppose for us Asians, we tolerate this because we come across a lot of woman like this. As for men, I think I can generally say, they don't mind sharing from the same plate....not so particular about germs.

ang moh must separate... each one his/her own plate... they feel offended if they gotta share a dish leh...
Anyway, hygiene factor, these days... there are public spoons for use... especially at wedding dinners... no longer like the olden days... -
I wouldn't mind sharing food. But I mind if the person uses their hand to eat, and then use the hand to pass the food to me. Before eating, strictly must use tissue wipe the spoons and chopsticks, irregardless hawker or restaurants. All these is my gf register the behaviour into me one. So yea, maybe its just their guai pi.

But dinner at chinese restaurant, my best friend's wife don't want to share the common dishes on the turntable, instead she call her dish, so she ate separately from us. Also it is common tradition, if you sit near the teapot and the saucer plates, bowls, chopsticks, teacups and spoons, to distribute to everybody around the table. But she returned all the cutlery I place for her, and she instead took it for herself. Wonder why this strange behaviour. Would you take this as an offence? Its like saying your hands are dirty with germs and your saliva not clean. I didn't bother at first because I didn't want to get sensitive at my best friend's wife, you know women lar, you don't want to step on their toes, hell hath no fury. -

Wah, you like my mother lar, she always take tissue to wipe chopstick and bowls before we eat wan. -
Personally, I do not mind sharing. But if I can avoid sharing, just avoid it. =)
Its best to be more hygenic... For example, when ordering chicken rice with a few friends.... we always go solo.. instead of getting chopped and ripped off by unscrupulous hawkers who charge us more.... by giving us the backside and the other parts that we do not eat. And its more hygenic to eat solo... why not?
Actually when eating at home, my mum separates the food out for us... LOL.... Only my dad likes the sharing habit... so after we have separated all our food... he takes from the 3 plates of dishes.... by sharing it with himself. -

Aiyoyo, headache lar because very hard to get my best friend out lar, his wife stick to him like glue. At least His wife can communicate a bit lar, sometime I can strike a joke or two with her. But I like to go nature hiking with my friends but she doesn't like the hot sun so my best friend always so he not free to come out. And then she doesn't talk much with my other friend's wife and gfs. So my problem is trying to integrate us as a group of outing friends because our wives and gf's don';t talk much to each other.

I have seen good friends sharing drinks and food. Do you guys dare to ? I dare not, not even with my family members. Sometimes I'm afraid to tell them that I dare not to share, I just told them I was too full. There was once I went out with this group of friends who did not use the common spoon, I told them I was full even though I was very hungry. How to get rid of this habbit ? I just simply could not swallow shared food.

No leh. Clean chopsticks all these is GF teach one! LOL.
Initially I quite anyhow, share then share. In fact, quite heart-warming. lool. But one thing is a no-no, is the use hand take food for me. And quite er xin is last time sec school, some ppl no money for lunch or to buy snacks, they will ask you share with them. Argh. Not I stingy, but i can't stand it when they use my spoon to drink the soup, or take a bite out of my chocolate and return to me. Yucks!

OCD? What is that? Maybe she got Hepatitis. But funny lar, I am not generalising but a lot of ladies are like that.
But got one time my cousin came back from Japan, contracted Hepatitis, then in CNY, we all ate at the round table, she go and use her chopstick on the shared dishes, her saliva all over the food. Luckily I didn't get Hepatitis.

It could be an obsessive-compulsive disorder.

And hor too clean ish not good for health! Someone who cleans and lives in a sterile environment will have a lousy immune system becoz their bodies are not accustomed to germs.
So u'll see them kena like the Martians with the giant brains

What gu niang! Ice cream this kind share liao, if the other person got ulcer/ flu/ sore throat, very high chance will also kena lor.
I got this relative who just gave birth. She will only allow people to carry the baby if they wash hand and clean with the hand sanitizer. This kind than jia lat lor.
