英语时差：男朋友缺乏餐桌礼仪
I have been dating a wonderful man who is very special but has absolutely no table etiquette. I know I should try to overlook it, but I can't.
"Jed" talks with his mouth full, chows down as if he hasn't eaten in a month, uses his fingers to push food onto his fork, holds his fork upright as if he's about to carve a turkey and cuts all his meat into pieces before he starts to eat.
