My wife is Vietnamese, they relate food to love due to the fact the older generations grew up starving because of war. Her trying to share her food with you is probably her trying to express her love for you, I'd guess that's why she reacts so badly when you reject it. My mother in law cooks everyday and gets upset if i eat out even one meal when we're with them, she wants to make sure I'm eating right/enough. Even if she knows i am, she wants to feed her kids and grandkids.
My advice, if you want to be her husband then eat the damn food. You Americans eat too much shit anyway and Vietnamese food is pretty damn healthy, if you need to then grab banh mi. Otherwise i doubt you're compatible with each other, once she has kids her rate of cooking Vietnamese food will increase because that is what she will want her kids to eat.
Also when you go visit your parents in law you will only be allowed to eat their cooking and it wont be hamburgers and hotdogs buddy.
Thank you for your kind words and a vote of confidence.
I tried reasoning with him and explaining exactly why the baby needs to eat by himself (because I know he’s not just going to look it up for himself and read up on it) and he accepted it for two days, then started getting all bothered by the mess baby was making again… And also he did attend parenting classes with me when I was still pregnant – looks like he was just dozing off during them.
Yeah you’re right. I guess I just learned that I require physical touch to feel loved/wanted. I probably would need it more than just a compromise situation
It was a combination of being late and my phone going to voice mail. It's never happened again, so he has improved.

Mostly because she feels comfortable using that label but her orientation leans more so on being pan ( she had bfs)
