You continue eating. The faster eater waits.
I'm a fast eater. But I've been blind sided by "partial eaters". Men who only eat part of their meal. One memorable time ... I asked "is your food OK? Did you enjoy this?" (I was treating). He responded: "Oh yes. I'm done. Mama always said I eat like a bird!"
And you know what? He was, indeed, done.
But let's face it, the longer you live alone, the less likely you are to remember everything about group table manners ... it takes practice.
I can tolerate almost anything except eating with mouth open ... smacking food while eating ... being rude to wait staff. Those are deal breakers.
Well ... don't comment on what Mama says. I'm sure she's a fine lady ... but I don't want to think about her serving you food and patting you on the belly while you are trying to kiss me.
Mind bleach!
