Did Sam's GF write Dear Prudence for advice

Dear Prudence,
I'm in my mid-20s and just got engaged to a sweet, funny, and attentive guy, whom I love very much. The problem? He's a very picky eater. He eats only about 10 things, all stuff you'd see on a kids' menu, such as chicken fingers, fries, plain pizza, and grilled cheese. He doesn't have a good explanation for it; he just says he doesn't like the textures of other foods. He knows it's a problem but doesn't do anything to work on it. This bothers me for several reasons. For one, though his doctor says he's healthy, I'm concerned that later he'll suffer the consequences of eating fried foods and no vegetables. Second, the refusal to eat like a grownup is a turn-off, and I see this trait as childish and stubborn. Third, his eating habits severely limit where we eat out. We'll never dine at an interesting restaurant, which I can get over, but it would be nice to have a special dinner somewhere other than a pizza parlor. I love him and don't want to make him feel embarrassed or pressured, but his picky eating is starting to grate on me. What should I do?

You should send this in to R&F... I'd say O&A but you'd have a better chance with the buddays of it getting on air.

I find it interesting that you found this - read Dear Prudence often?

Sounds like a dead ringer. Especially the texture part.

I hope Prudie's advice was that she should accept Ron's invitation to dinner...

And just about everything is worth reading on Slate.

Sounds made up if you ask me

[Chigworthy]

In my humble opinion, that's some future primitive-type shit.

Im not sure if she wrote the letter but it was obvious that she agreed whole heartedly with every word. Sam needs to wake up and realize that his querks are a much larger issue with Jess than she lets on before she splits.
I am no ladies man but I do know that even if only for special occasions a woman enjoys going out to a nice restaurant and trying new things and this is something lil Sam isnt into. Unless of course they serve chicken tenders and pizza. And when he all but admitted that he would do more to host Raw than he would to save her job she really acted hurt. It was odd that she suddenly got a headache and left the studio after that bit.

It's doesn't get the bit poster. Like the guy who said he was annoyed Dave had steak three times last week.
