My girlfriend eats like a fucking rabbit?

[Anonymous]

Me and my girlfriend go to uni together and she barely eat. She doesn't eat breakfast at home, at uni she only drinks tea and nibbles on some carrots. Around lunch time, she gets a coffee to go and that's it...
when we eat dinner after uni, she only has 1/4 of a normal meal..
she is always tired, pissed off and annoying. What to do?

[colouredconfetti]

Well coming from a family with eating disorders she could be suffering from one. The anger and being pissed off is just a side effect of not eating enough food. However, pressuring her to eat is just going to make her tell you exactly where to go. Mant times there are called "safe foods" which sounds like her carrots. You truly need to research this condition to understand and support her. Make sure she kniws you can talk to you. With eating disorders come depression, depersonalization, and pushing away loved ones. From what you have commented that she used to eat more she may be relapsing or just starting to develop the disorder. Is she really stressed out in her life or have a lot going on?

[Questionizer]

There could be lots of reasons for her not eating properly - mental illnesses could be one of them. When someone is depressed/anxious/stressed, appetite will naturally cease (or increase in some cases). Even if your girl doesn't have mental illness, she might be stressed or just not have a good appetite in general. You should express yourself to your girl and tell her that it worries you, maybe that will help.

I don't eat properly either - I probably eat less than two meals a day sometimes. It's not because of any mental illnesses or stress. Sometimes, I'm just too lazy to go make myself something to eat. I get full very easily so even a small muffin would make me full.

[stardust101]

Maybe introduce her to a salad instead of carrots? Lol. Not eating is worse than eating just carrots. So, there are a variety of good eating habits. Perhaps she doesn't want to gain weight? Whatever the case is, find out, don't criticize her eating habits but let her know that eating chicken is protein that a body needs in order to function. It's not rocket science not food is fuel. I mean, if you got no gas for the gas tank, it won't go anywhere right? It's the same with our bodies. Cars crash without fuel and so do people.

[Cmasterson]

She's tired because she's not getting any nutrients, you should sit her down and tell her you've been noticing her eating habits and that if she's in trouble she has to be honest and tell yo because its not healthy. She could have an eating disorder and yes it's annoying to see someone not enjoying food how they should but it's a mental disease to if she ends up having one. If she just doesn't want to eat infront of you like a grown adult then sit down with her and talk about it.

[boywithpinkhair]

I don't want to be alarmist, but it sounds like she might have an eating disorder. Have her sit down and tell her, in a supportive and not accusative manner (though she may misinterpret your tone anyway), that you've noticed that she doesn't seem to be eating a healthy amount of food and that you're worried she might have an eating disorder. Tell her you'll support her unconditionally and if it has gone well up to this point, ask if she'd consider talking to a professional just in case. Good luck.

[Jaden69]

Eating meals throughout the day is very important. Tell her it's for the sake of her health. I know people who literally live off coffee and a few bites of food for the day.

It's not good. Just tell her to start eating like smaller foods throughout the day. She has an hormonal imbalance probably because her diet is ass.

[AlyssaSalcido12]

She might have an eating disorder or something. Maybe you should try to be more sensitive towards her. Also, maybe she's self-conscious around you because she thinks you like a girl who is thin and doesn't eat much. Perhaps you should clarify the fact that you like women who actually eat. There's also the possibility that she's trying to be healthy or diet, in which case there's really nothing you can do unless you break up with her.

[Complicated-Soul]

She needs to eat more.
Is she trying to lose weight or does she not have time to eat?

If it's the latter, you guys can make a big dish or something and eat it through out the week.

Pack her good lunch.

She shouldn't skip breakfast.
Make her a smoothie maybe.

[9mfeo]

That is very concerning. I suggest that you encourage her to eat something at breakfast OR lunch at least. I am concerned that she has some form of an eating disorder or other. The problem with that is she won't change her habits until she chooses to or until she frightens herself so much (from nearly dying) that she makes a point to recover.

[Lolomon]

Lol, she is pissed off and tired cause she is hungry. I will admit women don't do hungry well, it's not in our biology. Diets don't work for women , or starving yourself she needs to eat. And have lifestyle change with better eating habits. Plus college is stressful, she may not have a appetite from stress plus not eating and being cranky.

[ambertaylor]

She might be anaemic. Tell her that you're worried about her eating habits and that might make her realise that her diet isn't healthy. She will burn herself out eventually on a diet like that and she'll loose focus and energy. She won't be giving 100% to her education and it's obviously affecting her mood.

[singlebee]

Hahahaha I laughed so loud when you said she eats like a rabbit... LOL

Anyways the behavior points towards maybe depression or maybe normal hormonal changes due to young age...

I think you should sit besides her and ask her what is wrong with her

[fauchelevent]

She's probably tired because of her lack of eating, she needs to eat more otherwise it will only get worse.

[Anonymous]

If your girlfriend is a rabbit there's nothing wrong with this, try giving her some lettuce and salad and allowing her to run in the garden or around the house when you are not there.
I wouldn't give rabbits coffee though im not sure thats reccomended

[nileve]

tell her that her attitude is getting on your last nerve and either she eats to stop her mood swings
not eating enough makes you sick or affects your attitude
so its either yourself or us because I'm sick of your bitchiness

[Beautifiedgirl123]

Lol is it bad that I do this at uni too. I skip breakfast and I don't eat at uni, when I get home at like 6-7 pm I have an apple or a fruit and then later on I have dinner and that's it 😂

[Asker]

You don't look it though but okay...

[Beautifiedgirl123]

Hehe yea I get told that often but people get shocked with how little I eat. My friends and family say I eat the same amount as a budgie, as a joke.

[BreatheMe19]

She's tired and irritated because she's boyfriend getting enough nutrients. This doesn't sound healthy and sounds like the start of an eating disorder. Tell her you're worried about her... Ask her what's up.

[BreatheMe19]

Wtf edit boyfriend to not**

[Mesonfielde]

She is clearly tired because she doesn't eat enough and she is malnutritioned, somehow you need to get her to adhere to a diet that doesn't kill her brain on the long term.

[Mr_Xavier]

If she's always tired, pissed off and annoying, it's only a matter of time before it's over.
I'm sure you've tried helping her.

Do what you believe is best in the journey of living a life that makes YOU happy.

[MaybeNot1]

LOL If you knew this would bother you in the long run, then you shouldn't of started dating her in the first place.

[Asker]

But she used to eat normal

[MaybeNot1]

This is all bad

[Ginnyweasley97]

she either is uncomfortable eating in front of you or she is tired due to lack of nutrients. i would sit her down and have a serious talk with her.

[Levin]

I don't know man, but something tells me you have the sensitivity and emotional insight into women to get it right yourself.

[DarkHumorRUs]

Ask her why she doesn't eat more. If that's something you'd be uncomfortable asking, then why is she your girlfriend.

[SlightlyCrazy]

Help her she has a problem. How dare you insult some one who is obviously hurting. Be a decent human being and be there when she needs you and talk to her. Otherwise she probably deserves someone better

[zombiebabe]

she's tired and moody because she isn't eating properly... maybe you should try to encourage her to eat

[Sam19XX]

What she eats is none of your business unless if its something harmful / she is underweight. If she is annoying , negative and not a person that you like , then why the hell are you with her?

[PepeandShrekrmybaez]

Is she anorexic? Don't ask her this... But check to see if she's really skinny and if she is... Just give her a little nudge at dinner and say something like, Hey, you aren't that hungry?

[lippy_hippy]

The title made me spit out my drink I was laughing so hard! 😂 Lol maybe she's shy about eating a lot and worried about what u might think hope this helped

[findingdreamland]

She just needs to eat. Eating makes us feel better.

[Bella929]

Not eating will make you tired and grumpy. Have you inquired to why she isn't eating?

[NatashaJ]

Maybe she trying to lose weight but its a dumb way to lose weight.

[Solost31]

Is she on some type or weird diet or is she to nervous to eat around you?

[Anonymous]

She's tired and posses off cause she's not eating. Is she trying to lose weight? Lack of zinc or B12 can cause you to not have an appetite

[Asker]

If looks like she is losing weight but she doesn't need to? She has always been skinny

[Opinion Owner]

Well that's what you think. That's not gonna change the way she fells about herself.

[ShaeNielson]

Find out why she doesn't eat, and try to help her/get her help so she can start eating properly.

[Maxemeister]

In their defense- rabbits eat large amounts of food

[Anonymous]

... and yet you stay with her, lol

Anyway, yeah, she's got a serious eating disorder, that she doesn't want to get help with because she can't admit that she has it

[TheSpartan]

That expression makes no sense. I own a rabbit, and he never stops eating.

[abundantlyrich]

She's having fat phobia.

[findingdreamland]

I agree

[possitivelife97]

are you worried she has an eating disorder?

[psychomonkey]

If it annoys you that much break up with her.

[Asker]

But that's a stupid reason for breaking up isn't it?

[psychomonkey]

Yes but I doubt she's going to change her eating habits for you. You can also learn to accept it

[cinderelli]

she is old enough to know this is not right..

[apple24]

Take her to see a doctor and a therapist.

[Anonymous]

Inject her food with fat

[jakeofalltrades]

tell her she needs to eat more

[Cowboy6666]

She is on dieting, that's why tired, unenergized

[Sailormoonprincess]

Cook for her

[godownliketreysn]

sounds like a bitch
