A meal made with love is always a well-made meal :)

[@martibee8984]

I love that for you, but I'd suggest working on improving your cooking skills a little if some of your food has him struggling to eat. If it's not your skills, and just something he doesn't like, maybe try to limit making those specific meals. I'm not suggesting that just so you can "please your man better," I'm suggesting it because he's showing you he cares despite it being something he doesn't like, so you should return the favor. The small things matter in both directions. It sounds like you have a keeper, so making small changes to keep him happy is smart. *I'm so trying not to sound like an azz while writing this, and I'm not sure it's coming off that way. Just know it's meant as friendly advice, not some you need to do better type of spiel.

[@MrJesvi]

Nah this is terrible advice, my father does the same with my mother, and guess what? My mother hasn't felt the need to improve in decades. Its pretty much lying to preserve someones potential feelings. The best course is thanking for the meal, saying your honest enjoyement of it, and asking if the cook wants any constructive criticism, politetly. If they don't want to hear criticism then thats fine. Fuck this lying shallo politeness shit. Me and my wife follow this rule for almost anything in our lives, not just cooking, to actually improve and grow. (I do most of the cooking and I'm constantly asking for feedback to improve)

[@kittikat2318]

“Why would you alienate one child?” Umm…bc that’s what abusers do! They typically single out 1, maybe 2 children to direct all their abuse towards. Especially in a step parent/kid situation. That way, the other kids will likely not tell another adult about such abuse, bc it’s not happening to them-they’ll even get the other kids to join in. The stepparent will give all their love & attention to their own kids, but treat the step kids terribly. Even “natural” parents do this with their “natural” children. It’s so mean & destructive to all their psyches .😢

[@olivinemage4233]

So true. My family was "all natural" (as far as I know) but golden child/scapegoat dynamic is still so real. It's literally the "one child gets a car for Christmas while the other gets a broken toy from Salvation Army" bit. All children deserve loving parents, but not all parents deserve to have children

[@tomwesdorp9043]

Disney built an entire business model around it.

[@Mariethechaotic]

Very true. This happened to my ex. She was abused in every awful way by her piece of shit dad but she doesn't remember her ever laying a hand on her brother and the ministry somehow decided it was fine to return both kids to them (except her father refused to let her come home after she "betrayed him") so she got out at 15 but he literally broke her capacity to have a healthy, loving relationship. I hope this kid isn't suffering worse than the story indicates but, as someone who has been in therapy for 3 years straight and still finds everything coming back for abandonment/rejection issues, neglect, even emotional, is no joke either. He's my son's age. You know what? She probably hasn't ignored him for 8 years. She probably played with him when he was a "fun age" and op is only seeing this now. That's how it seemed with my step mom. She played with us a lot when we were little but when we were 7 and our little brother was born 🤷

[@Just1Nora]

My bf accidentally slipped and dropped the jar of chili powder in the chicken and peppers for tacos. He can tolerate a lot of spice, but I have a hypersensitive nervous system and I had tears running down my face..."No, Babe, it wasn't bad! A bit stronger than I'd typically eat, but tasted good!" First meal he cooked for me. He remembered it like two years later and it finally hit him and he asked me, he was like, "Remember that? Ya know, it was even a bit spicy for me, so omg you must've been dying! Why didn't you say something?!" What else was I gonna eat when that was what he had in the freezer and the fridge was empty? No doordash out in the country either. You appreciate what was made for you. Even if it burns.

[@Eevee-ks6cp]

12:27 My parents got a divorce when I was 7 and I grew up with 4 amazing parents. I am so lucky that my step parents love me like I am their own flesh and blood, and I cannot even imagine how painful this rejection is. It's very clear she does not want to see him as her child too.

I'm fine hearing opinions, not every dish I make is "the best," but a full on presentation would piss me off so much.

[@TacseraEpSekahs]

I think there's a healthy difference between having a preference in food and treating a partner like a slave. You can have a preference in food, but you should be wiling to either fulfill it yourself or (if you can't cook) order a take out that both of you will like. Partner who never contributes to cooking or serving meals has no say in their taste imho.

Not only is one meal a week dangerously unhealthy, it also won't help you lose weight, your body will actually hold onto whatever fat you've got for dear life

[@sandcat2327]

this is what many people dont get about eating disorders. often, the body will even put on weight to desperately hold onto the little energy you give it, before breaking down **everything**. it doesn't just magically dissapear.

[@user-vp7jz4ec6i]

I don't know, I lost way too much and too rapidly just by not eating most of the day (just eating one real meal a day) I actually don't recommend it.

[@lydiap.9337]

​@@sandcat2327yeah and it isn't just during the eating disorder either it can be very hard to recover because you slowed down your metabolism to the point that going back can make you gain the weight all back or even gain more. It's not a fix for your weight at all not even temporarily and anorexia is one of the deadliest mental health conditions there is. It's so dangerous for you. I hope that girl finds a healthy way to lose weight and learns to love her body at any size

[@cassiethecoil]

Just a little advice that helped me loose 20 Ibs: The way to healthily loose weight is to not just eat healthier, but also excersize too. Intermittent fasting helps too. You basically eat for only eight hours a day and fast for 16. You aren't eating less but you are helping your body's metabolism by switching it to burning fat instead of muscle

[@Rebecca-of7fh]

Yes it's dangerous BUT the idea that sever sustained caloric deficit doesn't lead to weight loss is just untrue - if you maintain activity levels the body WILL break down any fat stores for energy. That's literally the function of fat storage, to use as fuel when food is scarce. The idea that it 'doesn't work' is that it doesn't address the assumed underlying attitudes toward eating and exercise that lead to being overweight in the first place, because MOST people have bad baseline habits and return to those with no change when they hit their goal weight, which undoes the weight loss

[@Nffyr]

It’s so common dude. Similarly in my life I’ve had women be shocked that I’d be in to them. Well to be honest, most of them are shocked. Not that I’m some Gyllenhaal, it’s just how women are treated most of the time. Even good men have horribly unrealistic standards of beauty, while being delusional about their own. It’s easy to be a hot guy, take care of yourself; exercise, wash your body, keep groomed (hair/beard), use deodorant, cologne, and wear clean clothes. And if you have a job, you’re a catch! Women are expected to be a certain size, dress a certain way, wear a specific amount of makeup (??????), and all because men just can’t live without the ‘perfect woman’. To summarize; we gotta be better.

[@Notyoavragejo]

@@Nffyr From my experience, women aren't too keen on the men whose standards are so low that it's basically "is alive", but that's a whole other thing.

[@Just1Nora]

​@@Nffyr Seriously, as a makeup free fat lady who hasn't considered herself pretty...ever? Or at least since my high school anorexia days, thank you. Fat women are so marginalized. Even fat men are more accepted in society because they can't cook, they like sweets, or "Hey, he can't help it! Cut him some slack!" "Dad bod" is sexy, but "mom bod?" Ew. Could anyone ever picture someone saying that to a fat woman? "Cut her some slack!" Not happening. Yeah, I'm disabled (chronic pain) and sedentary, but I also have hypothyroidism which makes significant weight loss very difficult if you don't run a marathon a day. I was very active in college, took gym classes and exercised, and was still overweight. And the fact that I felt I had to explain and justify that to you now is crazy. I can't just be what I am, much less who I am. When I was on dating apps I'd have conventionally attractive, fit guys mutually match with me just for them to say, "Yeah, you're fat and ugly. I don't do fat chicks." Bruh, why'd you match with me then? To bully me? So, no, I'm good. I don't need a partner. I have cats, so I'm the "middle aged (spinster) crazy cat lady!" My cats love me, understand how I'm feeling, one even alerts me to oncoming migraines and stays on me purring and sleeping with his head nuzzled into my hand on the worst days, and I didn't train him or anything, and cats don't degrade me or treat me like less than because I'm fat. They don't care! I don't even like using the word fat to describe myself, it's unacceptable! Women have to be called curvy, pleasantly plump, heavy, big beautiful women, etc because we have to be fetishized to be acceptable. Society has deemed that the worst thing a woman can be is fat, and nobody cares if you're kind, caring, sensitive, giving, and someone who loves to make others smile. If you're fat, then none of that matters. It becomes "excuses" for why you being fat is okay. I'm not desirable, I know. Just don't throw it in my face and remind me. Let me live my life in peace. Or that's what I'd like to tell them.

[@apocalypticdream2258]

Man. Okay. So i AM a step mom, i have the majority of kids in our blended household due to previous (and abusive) relationships in my teen years. And im currently going through nasty challenges of divorce and custody battles to move on and give my current and loving partner the freedoms we both deserve in life. The first guy with the power points. It literally sounds like my ex-husband. Some people will resort to absolutely insane things just to degrade someone and get away with it. In my own experience it was consistent use of his "higher education" (something i wasn't even allowed to pursue) to gaslight and "philosophically" devalue any arguments against the treatment of myself and my children until i finally just had to walk out and abandon the entire relationship. The step mom isolating her step son is just. Disgusting. Honestly. And in my own experiences, sometimes, even comes from familial abuse outside of home For example my patner's mother likes to pretend that all children (not just my own) who arent biologically related to her dont deserve even christmas presents and she spent months refusing to acknowledge me or my kids until my patner(not previously mentioned ex) was fed up with it and told her if she wont recognize his step children as grandkids then she doesnt deserve any of them. To this day she hasnt met our shared child. and complains to my patner's siblings that im abusive for forcing a divide in this family, all while providing free childcare and financial assistance to his son's mother who openly abused both my partner and their child for years and still does. And finally, "that whales house" WHAT?! No. I have many fat friends who struggle with hundreds of self depreciated issues like that poor woman. And thank you so much Daniel for choosing to focus on the idea that she first and foremost deserves to feel healthy and well cared for. I grew up conventionally attractive and, unfortunately, have heard all sorts of ways other people with my "hotness level" (gross) will go out of thier way to make others feel absolutely horrid about themselves just for amusement. I never much tolerated that behavior in my social groups. But as a "certified hot girl," I've seen my share of slumber parties where the main event was to scheme different cruel ways to bully the fat kid in class that following monday or school events. These people not only exist but are usually surrounded by a social life that encourages behaviors like this. In my case specifically, it leads to nasty social isolation and even financial deprivation or familial abandonment. Even a decade later i feel actually guilty for pursuing childsupport from absent parents due to what they're willing to say and claim just to avoid even paying $50 a week sometimes. Add on to it that these were situations i was actively a minor in and being abused. Sometimes, i find myself unable to see a person in the mirror. Sometimes i question the validity of my own experiences and traumas, even with a psychiatrist, and a dedicated medical team helping me heal and uncover that abuse. Some things are so impactful that a full 9 years later you'll seek justice and peace and blame yourself for being a 17yo in a relationship with a 23yo. Blame yourself for the SA you recieved. And even find moments you think you deserved that abuse or abandonment and finacial withholding. I suppose my point in the end of all this is: these videos might come across as silly or humor at the crazy shit in this world. But its extremely important that people like myself are able to find a voice like yours speaking out agaisnt treatment like that. A voice thats going to loudly and strongly enforce self-protection. So please keep doing this series. It might seem dumb. But i am a vicitm to stories like this, and after watching this video my flashbacks today are slightly quieted

I was always the "ugly sister" and fell victim to comparison bias with both my pretty sister and bff. Now I'm fat, ugly, and have debilitating chronic pain (it always existed, I just finally accepted how bad it is). You can be attractive, unattractive, fat, thin, tall, or short, and people will always find a way to tear you down to make them feel better about themselves. We didn't choose our bodies, genetics, or parents. Nobody did! So why do we have to treat some roll of the genetic dice like that is an entire person's worth? It's the spark of what is piloting the meatsuit that matters! You are the culmination of electrical impulses, the neurons that have been pruned and shaped in response to stimuli, the chemical messages that travel between those neurons, and whatever that ultimately combines into. Some call it your soul, but whatever you call it, that is the very essence of who you are. Why should it matter what the rest is? Why must we hurt others because that somehow matters to some small leftover impulse from before we had language to say, "This is me," and we had to rely on genetic fitness to survive? Why? It makes no sense to me.

Making the meals together can be bonding, fun, and both people can learn new things too. It doesn't always get them to use some seasoning, but it normally works. I've even made more flavorful meals by myself for friends, and family, just so they can try new flavors. People used to bland meals don't always enjoy the huge difference in flavors though. There was one person who cooked bland food because she wanted to make food that wouldn't be too much for some people, and wanted to avoid allergies too. Turned out she cooked flavorful meals for herself already. It's amazing what you can accomplish in gaining general satisfaction for everyone by working with them instead of complaining or critiquing.

"You deserve it all" 😢❤ staaaahhhhpppp, you're making my mascara run.

Whenever I hear step-parent stories even remotely like this... it hits so close to home for me. While I wouldn't say that my step-dad and I are the closest, it was actually the easiest decision of my life to have him walk me down the isle when I got married and my biological father wasn't even invited. I met him when I was 7. Teenage years were a struggle, especially after he and my mom had kids. It was difficult not to feel a bit left out, but as an adult I know he did his best to NOT make me feel that way. For the longest time I had called him by his first name. The word 'Dad' for me had a negative connotation to it, so I didn't like using it. But when my oldest little sister called him by his first name once, I felt so bad, and it stuck with me that every single time I refered to him while talking to any of my sisters I called him 'Dad' or 'Daddy.' I was really sick many years ago, but couldn't afford to go to the doctor, and my step-dad picked up medicine for me, and when I thanked him it was the first time that I called him Dad directly to him on accident. I noticed, but I don't think he did at all. My Mom also doesn't think he noticed. But the fact that he didn't notice - made me happy. So, ever since I have called him Dad. It might have taken me nearly 20 years after meeting him, but I got there!! :'D

It seems like the first guy wanted out of the relationship, but wanted to do it in a way that it was mutual. Just because of how little convincing it took to get him to pack up and move out.

[@DespairDoctor]

I love the secret relationship "Let Him Go" song. It really should never have gotten to that point. Before she told him "bye" I know she's overweight and doesn't know her own worth, but she should have had more self respect than to put up with being the secret chick no one knows about.

[@sarahberkner]

Right, I never understood that. Even if you don't know your own worth, no one's saying you have to be in a relationship at all, so why live with someone who's (supposedly) embarrassed to be seen with you? Or did she misunderstand the situation and something happened in Shane's life? Idk but it doesn't matter because the only positive thing she could say about him is that he's attractive.

[@DespairDoctor]

@sarahberkner exactly. Being in a relationship is not everything, especially when it's this kind of relationship. I'm hoping she didn't misunderstand anything, but I'm pretty sure she didn't.

[@worldvex]

I 100% believe the powerpoint story. I knew someone who would ABSOLUTELY do that and react the exact way that boyfriend did 😭

[@AuntLoopy123]

Different people enjoy different amounts of salt. Some people WANT more salt but choose less salt, for health reasons. This is why LESS SALT IS THE CORRECT WAY TO SEASON FOOD YOU ARE SERVING TO OTHER PEOPLE. Guess what? You can always ADD SALT to YOUR OWN DISH. But you can't TAKE SALT AWAY when "Salt Boy" does the cooking to HIS standards. Low salt dinners. He should be THANKING HER for TAKING CARE OF HIS HEALTH. And then get a flippin' salt shaker.

[@frankiemillcarek6976]

The last song is actually really sweet I want an album length version.

[@katelynwilhelmsen]

22:12 this is actually a bop and I would unironically listen to it

[@Nova_is_silly_goofy]

Surprise microphone surprises me more than movies with supposed twist endings The only other thing to rival is the placement of Max Fosh’s sponsorships

[@OuchingTigerLimpingDragon]

I literally jumped when he phased out of existence lol

[@raeraebadfingers]

My younger brother and older sister are only half siblings but I've never seen or called them anything but my siblings. We lived together and we were raised together our whole lives. They will never be my "half" siblings, because they ARE my brother and sister.

[@pearlkohler5422]

Get some swimming goggles to put in a kitchen drawer for the onions. Works perfectly and looks funny as fuck win win

[@tinachristina9669]

“You Deserve It All” is actually so majestic

[@Aureilia]

Why was it an entire PowerPoint??? Just tell her?? Like a normal person?? The amount of effort is the most wild and insulting part 😭

[@starlesspaw]

got some banger songs in here!!! your channel is such a delightful unique way of reading aita stories

[@SlayerMoon17]

I can’t believe these stories are real, they are so outrageous.

[@Swift_Lemon]

22:09 weirdly this song genuinely helped

[@votzko]

finally my sleep podcast episode. i haven't slept in 7 days. thanks daniel

[@Poots_80]

My son had a stepmother who would walk around him in just a tshirt and panties at night. I explained to him that some people sleep that way and that she was probably just downstairs to get a drink and assumed he was asleep (he slept on the couch when he was at her house) He said that wasn’t the case because she would pour herself wine and chat with him. I bought her a robe for Christmas the next year. Some people just shouldn’t be parents. 13:34

[@willowdove6703]

Daniel will just causally drop the sickest beats like its nothing. Give us the rest of "You Deserve it All", king! (if you want to, no pressure)

[@heatherramirez6141]

They’re red grapes Danny boy

[@wolfiewilde6717]

I was looking for a comment on the grapes loll There's actually red grapes and purple grapes (and green, of course). Personally, the purple grapes are my favorite

[@AzuresDiary]

damn he just started singing so majestically at the end

[@hungry4pizza44]

Here's a way to make the powerpoint good. Title: How to improve our home dining experience, Slide 1: Impossible. There is no slide 2

[@r2Gt06]

I don't know if you realise how much I and people like me, which there have to be some, are grateful for this kind of your reddit vids, Daniel - I mean the ones where you create not one, but multiple music pieces/themes for the stories you present... I love these with my whole heart! Thank you so much!! 💚 And I must mention, I'm devastated about the last person's take on their worth and their life and everything. Unspeakable. 💔💔💔

[@martibee8984]

That last song has great potential. I'd like to hear more of it.

[@DragonJr]

The "my kids " thing hits home. I have one half sibling, same mom, different dads. I never knew my dad, my younger siblings father was my step dad, and only dad I ever knew. Around the time i was 8, mom and step-dad got divorced, and later step dad's new wife would not allow me to visit along with my sibling during step dad's visitations weekends because I wasn't his kid. This after about a year of us both visiting before he remarried. As an adult it's ancient history, but as a child, devastating. Too young to process the complexity of being cut out, twice fatherless and essentially rejected.

[@iknowyouwanttofly]

Did you ever tell him how it made you feel?

[@kedaousadama]

Omg. You ATE with this one! One of the things I’ve been craving is more of your songs and we got three total bangers??? HELL YEAH!!

[@bear9295]

The weaponized incompetence is killing me

[@buttersticks7877]

it makes me so sad with the secret relationship one that you can see the OPs internalized fatphobia OOZING out of her wording :( whatever she'd like to do with her body is absolutely her choice, but she should be making those choices for good reasons, not because she thinks she's ugly. fat and ugly are not synonymous. that has nothing to do with the problem as a whole but it just made me kinda sad. EDs are no joke and i really hope she can find some therapy and slowly work out of that stuff

[@OuchingTigerLimpingDragon]

One of your song fragments from an older episode keeps getting stuck in my head, and I live with the knowledge that there's no full version out there. Edit: And now "You deserve it all" is on that list. Dammit, why do you have to be so _good_ at this, Daniel?!

[@Tawleyn]

I know I'm not alone in thinking that last song was amazing and deserves a full version. I wanted to add that it also almost made me cry.

[@oceanmaster163]

At about 20:00, someone in my family(large person) went to the doctor and they told her that she could not eat for a week and medically be fine, because of how slow she metabolizes. It is probably something like that.

[@shadowgirl765]

I'd love to hear more about this because I've been eating under 1500 calories a day(sometimes under 1,000) and haven't been losing weight at all

[@michellemuenich7432]

holy shit that last song Daniel WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY HEART brb crying

[@lrdiaz2768]

Daniel we're all begging you, just release a full album already

[@AuntLoopy123]

Try chilling the onions before you chop them. That has helped for me. Normally, I'm one of those people who have to be at least 30 feet away from onions, or I WILL cry, even in another room, if there is ANY airflow between them. But COLD onions don't seem to do it, as much. I've also heard that chopping them under running (cold) water helps, but that sounds dangerous. I DO know that rubbing salt on your hands after dealing with onions will help take the juice off them, so you salt your hands, scrub, rinse well and you can finally touch your eyes, again. Oh, and one more thing to help with onions: LEAVE THE BASE ATTACHED. Don't chop off both ends and then chop. Cut off the pointy root part, and cut the onion in half, top to bottom, so you have a flat surface. Then, with the sproingy tufts at the top still attached, you chop up the rest of the onion, working closer and closer to that base of the greens, until you can't get any closer. That will, somehow, make it less eye-watering. I've done it, and it worked for me. I have no idea WHY, but it worked for me. Good luck with onions!

[@raeskorner]

17:45 Ooh unfortunately there are a lot of guys who are too ashamed to date a fat girl. Higher chance if their whole thing is fitness. They'll have secret relationships with fat girls because they're attracted to them and they know they'll probably be desperate for attention as well. It sucks. That's never happened to me as a chubby/bigger girl, thankfully, but it makes my anxiety so much worse knowing it could and I might not realise it right away

[@britneypennington8502]

I loved the amount of music in this one. Especially that song in the end ❤

[@oranges446]

The first ever “surprise microphone” I’ve been actually surprised with 😅

[@pleinairlizfair]

11:56 Divorce for sure. This is a difference in values, and that poor boy 😢

[@bluerainbow11]

My bf is also the chopper and I'm the ensembler/cooker. He tells me to just tell him what I need him to do lol. Neither of us love to cook, but this makes it much more enjoyable for both of us. We are both happy with this arrangement. I think he likes my cooking more than I do though lol.

[@allanae]

I lost it at the surprise microphone, disappearance. 🤣

[@LizStaley]

We keep our onions in the fridge! It actually keeps you from crying if they’re cold. Food Theory did a whole episode on chopping onions and I think they found refrigeration was the best way to keep from crying.

[@FortKnoxMovies]

I checked out the step parent post, having grown up with an abusive step mother I could relate. Shit got crazy. Good news apparently the step mother made an effort to be better to the kid, and they started playing video games together after school. Bad news the OP is actually some crazy misogynist pos. He was insulting female commenters and saying weird things like “women belong in cages.” It got weird on that posts if anyone was looking for an update.

[@Jakkieeee]

the fact that he made the how to take a joke powerpoint BEFORE she came to him with her feelings. He knew prior and was plotting to make fun of her regardless

[@Ecofriendlyant]

Right on time for me to play while I go to bed

[@iMind-Juris]

9:28 this would make a perfect animated emote for comedians in chat 💯

[@estherhopkins7800]

MAKE “YOU DESERVE IT ALL” A FULL SONG. I NEED THIS SONG. MAKE IT HAPPEN. Pls

[@Sarah-Jane17]

No cap, the more relationship nightmares you share Daniel the happier I am as a single woman.

[@lnx0007]

Shane was just using her for reduced living costs. It was all a sham at her expense.

[@clairefuzipeg1983]

The songs from this were just brilliant, please release them individually. The lovely layered tones of the last uplifting one especially x

[@CaliHime]

Can we *please* get a full version of "you deserve it all". Sounds like a powersong to me.

[@ms.garciasmusicclass8335]

I love this channel and this series!

[@HonkIfYouLoveBeer]

That last song seriously slaps, I wanna hear the verses & a bridge

[@undyingUmbrage413]

okay i'll be real if i was op one i'd absolutely laugh at him pulling up a SECOND powerpoint about "how to take a joke" just for the sheer absurdity of it all. it's like something right out of a sitcom.

[@corinne_vintage]

That last song = my new wake up alarm. I wanna feel that shit in my soul every morning. YES.
