me either, but for some people their entire life is just repeats of the same episodes. they also tend to be people who never change jobs or get promoted or try anything new. for example my girlfriend basically wanted to eat at the same place every Friday with the same group of people and were totally negative towards the notion of ever doing anything new or different.
and of course, would also endlessly complain, that we never did anything new, or met anyone new… and why aren’t I showing her new experiences!
I’m planning on going back to a restaurant I was at last week… But to try one of the other dishes that looked good that I didn’t try (even though the dish I had might be the best fish dish I’ve ever tried). But I have struggled with trying new things at restaurants in the past because it’s hard to commit to a mystery dish that might be good vs the known dish that I know I’ll like (usually burgers or pasta).
But after trying a taster menu at a michelin star restaurant (not the one I might go back to today), which was full of dishes I’d never order on my own but every single one of them were amazing, I have an easier time taking that risk.
But I never blamed anyone other than myself for not trying new dishes before that.
Edit: I went back and had one of the other dishes, unfortunately it wasn’t as good as the last one, but it was still decent and now I know I prefer the first dish. Though there’s still others I want to try, first dish might be out of season by the time I try everything. And horrible things didn’t happen just because I ended up trying a dish that I wouldn’t choose again.

nothing was ever her fault, ever, of course.
