Do you have any advice for someone who has issues when dining out... even thought i am a teen?

My name is daniella


and whenever i go out to eat people look at me funny. My parents have never said anything about it, but im not allowed to eat lunch at school or eat at a friends house. This is how i normally eat at a resturant. when we get the drinks i slurp it down as fast as i can and ask for more. then when the bread comes i eat as much as i can so im not hungry any more. THen if theres left over butter i eat it out of the little tub things. When the food comes i am normally not too hungry so i just dig in and stuff as much in at a time as i can. I do have to wash my hands off on my pants if they get too dirty. though, like when im eating pasta with sauce. I mean sometimes i think i should eat with a fork and stuff, but they just slow you down and im all about the fast. So as soon as im done i try as hard as i can to burp really loud. Then i go and wait in the car until the rest of my family is done. I know that no one else eats like me but my mom says everyone is unique and i truly belive that but i think that to get a boyfriend my manners need to be better so please help!!!!!!!!!








i need it

take all the things your about to eat and instead of putting it in your mouth, put up your butt until you realize how normal people eat.Do you have any advice for someone who has issues when dining out... even thought i am a teen?
I would hate to sit next to you at a meal, your parents should have taught you basic table manners,


Go to a library and get a book on etiquette then do some practising
Daniella, Every time i think of u eating i throw up in my mouth. Please dont even bother trying because i think u are too far gone. ive seen u eat u pig
take a class on etiquette....





thats my advice
You wipe your hands on your pants and you actually try to burp really loudly - and that is beside the Simpsons-like style of eating. To be honest, your conduct would make most people in your presence feel ill, and any boyfrfiend would surely run out of the door before the end of the meal. If your description of your conduct is accurate, here in London you would probably be asked by the manager to leave.
You sound like you're being a slob on purpose.





Unfold the napkin and put it in your lap.


Hold the knife and fork like pencils, not shovels.


Don't touch the food with your fingers.


Don't burp at the end.


Chew and swallow one bite at a time.





P.S. You're dumb.
Daniella,





Gosh! I do not wish to be mean but why have your parents not taught you good table manners? The way you ';normally eat at a restaurant'; is embarrassing. You should be embarrassed as should your parents. That's why people look at you and, believe me, they are looking at your parents, too!





I checked out the site www.gourmet-food-revolution.com and it should start answering your questions. This gives you an idea of what to expect:





Dinner Table Etiquette - the 10 Do's!





';Once seated, unfold your napkin and use it for occasionally wiping your lips or fingers. At the end of dinner, leave the napkin tidily on the place setting.





It is good dinner table etiquette to serve the lady sitting to the right of the host first, then the other ladies in a clockwise direction, and lastly the gentlemen.





Hold the knife and fork with the handles in the palm of the hand, forefinger on top, and thumb underneath.





Whilst eating, you may if you wish rest the knife and fork on either side of the plate between mouthfuls. When you have finished eating, place them side by side in the center of the plate.





If the food presented to you is not to your liking, it is polite to at least make some attempt to eat a small amount of it. Or at the very least, cut it up a little, and move it around the plate!





It is quite acceptable to leave some food to one side of your plate if you feel as though you have eaten enough. On the other hand, don't attempt to leave your plate so clean that it looks as though you haven't eaten in days!





Desserts may be eaten with both a spoon and fork, or alternatively a fork alone if it is a cake or pastry style sweet.





Should a lady wish to be excused for the bathroom, it is polite for the gentlemen to stand up as she leaves the table, sit down again, and then stand once more when she returns.





Always make a point of thanking the host and hostess for their hospitality before leaving.





It is good dinner table etiquette to send a personal thank you note to the host and hostess shortly afterwards.';





After you have read through the website, get some books at the library and read, read, read then practice what you have learned.





You should take an ettiquette course as well.





You don't eat butter out of the tubs. You don't eat everything in sight. You don't burp. You don't wipe your dirty hands on your clothes! You do eat with a knife and fork! You don't race to the car when you are finished (this is considered to be rude)!





I would hope you are serious in improving yourself because if you are not, high school and college and your first job are going to be very difficult.





One more thing: Everybody is unique. And ';everybody'; is taught good table manners. Shame on your parents! Gosh!
