It seems like every culture expects guests to want to eat regardless of their circumstances, and if you refuse, you’re automatically rude and insulting.
If I offer you food and you refuse, I’m going to be quite happy. It means I get to save money and have more food to myself. I ain’t offering a second time if you say no the first time :maduro-coffee:
I don’t think many Anglos experience this because of their culture lol.
We don’t have one of those.
Thank you for explaining it. I was worried that I am so deeply autistic I’d overlooked some incredibly obvious social norm that everybody else understood except for me. :powercry-1:
