Q: You have probably received this question a million times but I couldn’t find it in the archives. My boyfriend licks his fingers really noisily, I’m not used to licking fingers at all when at table (whether at home or in a restaurant). What can I say in a polite way to make him stop?
A. If your boyfriend licks his fingers noisily, you might suggest he use silverware. Or bring some packaged towelettes along and hand him one
Are we talking about a man who does not use silverware? And that is not an issue, it is just the licking? More specifically, the sound of the licking? Or do they only go to restaurants that do have finger food, but don’t have napkins? This will haunt me for weeks.
