My boyfriend doesn't like to go out to dinner.

Question

So, I'm normally a fast food kind of girl, but people get tired of that after a while, you know?

So, one day I asked my boyfriend, why don't we go to olive garden? he said no, I was like o.k. well, how about sweet tomatoes? he said no, and I was like o.k. well you decide where.

He said taco bell.

I asked him why he doesn't want to go to a real restaurant with me? he said because he doesn't like them!

I've never heard anyone say that before.

The real problem here is that he goes out to eat all the time with his parents, but he won't go with me?

Does that mean there's something wrong with me?

i do not like to eat at restaurants. I would rather cook at home. There is nothing I can get at a restaurant that I cannot make at home. I like knowing what is in my food and it costs less. Whenever I go to a restaurant it takes me 15 minutes to decide what to order. Many times the food tastes horrible even at fine restaurants. I hated Canolis until I started making them at home. I also make my own soap rather than buy it. I throw away less fat and oil and my skins is baby soft. I can then make the soap smell however I want it to. I have more power over what I want when I make it myself.

How old is this guy?!  Maybe he's strapped for money?  I mean if he eats with his parents I'm sure his parents pay for the meal.  But Fancy restaurants like olive garden can add up to triple or quadruple the amount as compared to fast food... Depends on his budget I guess...  Or maybe he's saving the fancy stuff for a special occasion...

Does he want to go other places with you and just not nice restaurants?  or does he not want to take you out period?  if it's the latter, he might have another girlfriend and trying to play you.  if it's the first one, IDK

If your boyfriend doesn’t like to go out to dinner maybe the food you like can come to you instead. Have takeout night at home & order takeout from all the restaurants you both like. Stop at Taco Bell & pick up some tacos to go & after that circle around to Olive Garden & pick up what you want to eat. Both of you need to meet halfway on this one & takeout is the answer on this one.

Maybe he doesn't like real restaurants (chain or otherwise) because he's had bad experiences at them before, or because he doesn't even like eating there with his parents.

One thing is for sure: he has poor taste in food.

I have the same problem with a boyfriend of 30 years. He just doesn't like to be told what to do. If you can make him come around through subtle hints -do that. If not and it is important to you, try taking him out for a nice meal. If that doesn't help, drop him.
