Force

Forcing is such an Asian thing to do, in my humble opinion.

For example: I hate it when my Mum forces me to practice the piano. I know, I know but really... it gets irritating. Whether I irritate my Mum by not practicing the piano or not, is a different story but you get what I mean.

Moving on to reality...

I hate it when people force me to eat when I do not feel hungry or do not feel like eating.

I, for one, do not tend to be such an Asian to use "reverse psychology" by declining when I really, really want it so badly at heart. Because I think it is a waste of time and only pea brains would live up to this tendency.

But what irritates me more, in which flows along with the forcing is that when you give your reason (the truth and nothing but the truth, mind you), they do not believe you and think by sending guilt running down your spine would make you change your mind but seriously, it makes me pissed off.

Here are a few examples inspired by true events (in my experience, of course):-

"I am not hungry and I do not want to eat."
"It is your life. Go ahead and get gastric."

What a curse.

"I have already eaten."
"Yeahhhhhh rightttttttt!!!!!! Just eat it."


When I am not hungry, I will tell you I am not bloody hungry and I do not wish to eat and I expect you to respect my decision. So stop forcing me and ask me to "have a bit" or rather "just eat it".

You know what irritates me as a whole? Not believing or let alone respecting my answer. Yeah, you must have seen me not eating before that you have this fantastic sarcasm of saying, "Yeah right". Really? Is that all you can say after??

I may be an Asian and have grown up in an Asian community, but that does not mean I am like every other Asian who shy away by refusing great offers when at heart, it is otherwise.

Even if I were to get a gastric (as cursed), I'd rather not eat than to contradict myself and making people think I am cheap like that.
