We can never go for family meals because my sisters boyfriend is a fussy eater
So my sisters boyfriend is a fussy eater, whenever he goes out he orders a margarita pizza, a plain burger or plain grilled chicken with rice (there cannot be any spice). This limits us to pubs or Italian restaurants , every single time.
My niece (her daughter) keeps wanting to try new places like an Indian or chinese but my sister keeps snapping that we are leaving him behind and excluding him. We go to the pub ALL the time and every 6 months I suggest a different restaurant and that he can just sit this one out and it's like I've suggested something terrible. I've also suggested he comes and just orders a drink and orders some chips but that also isn't an option as we are still excluding him (despite me having fussy/allergy friends who do this ALL the time). My mum has lived a sheltered life so I'd like her to experience more and my niece rarely goes out for meals with her mum because my sis only ever wants to go to pub meals which my niece doesn't want. But my sister sees it as she asks her all the time to go out but my niece never wants to go. Yes because its what you guys want, not her!!
My sister says we should go to those places when its not a "family meal" but if I take my niece and then my brother hears we went out he'd also want to be invited and then we'd naturally ask my mum and before you know it, it's a family meal. Plus I prefer to just go out once and just invite everyone rather than separate meals to see people because eating out is $$$
It is so extreme that my wedding meal venue I chose a Greek tapas place and I REALLY wanted greek and my sister forced me to change it and I had to choose a place that served burgers.
It is an argument EVERY single time. I am fed up!
AITA??
