Would you rather: A boyfriend or a fried chocolate vanilla creme Pop Tart with Nutella?

editor

My friend was just complaining about her newly vegetarian and overly weight-conscious boyfriend. "If he makes me go on one more silly hike or hit up another farmer's market for a single head of lettuce, I don't know what I'm going to do."

Keep in mind that she's a size 6. (Kate Moss, look what you've done to our society.)

"Every time I eat he says, "Quit while you're ahead!" And every time he says that, I want to eat a fried chocolate vanilla creme Pop Tart with Nutella on top." She said.

My slight attention deficit disorder kicked in with the image of a fried chocolate vanilla creme pop tart w/ Nutella. That sounded relatively creative and delicious.

So folks, what do you think? Does it sound good to you? Seems a little overly sweet, but nothing a glass of milk can't cure, right? Also, feel free to weigh in on how she should handle the beau. When it comes to this guy I say, "Go for the Pop Tart!"

    He doesn't want a girlfriend, he wants a Barbie doll! I say dump him and find someone who accepts her for who she is, not what she eats. What a control freak!

    Well for one I think your friend needs to first wrap her mind around why she was first attracted to this guy and what the had in common to be together for so long before just ditching him for food. And another thing I wouldn't go for that sweet, it may sound good but it sounds like a major tummy ache waiting to happen. So I rather take the guy, whom I could likely compromise with than a treat that will have me holding my stomach for a few days there. Bu her choice it is.

    criticism of your weight or eating habits is just step one of an abusive relationship. trust me, if he is willing to criticize you for that, it will get worse, not better if you accomodate. when this happens, do yourself a favor and move on.

    Ditch the boyfriend. He seems way too concerned with her weight. I say she should eat Pop-tarts instead.
