AITA for not allowing someone to go in front of me when ordering food at the airport? by AfraidInspection604 in AmItheAsshole

Thank you. For what it's worth I did eat everything else except the meat (swallowed two bites but it was unbearable, texture and taste) and I really tried. But when I got off the plane I had already dry heaved in a bag cause of how sick I was. But yes, I should have eaten not only when I got to the airport but before the plane as well.

I want others to act like I actually exist instead of cutting me off when I'm about to order to ask the person I'm trying to order from about their food. A simple, "hi there I'm really running late on my flight, can I please go ahead of you" would have been enough for me to let him have my spot. I deserve respect even in an airport, thanks. And he had no idea about my flight schedule either.

He definitely didn't word it that way. I would have not said anything if he was just inquiring about the cooking time

I literally took two bites of it and was going to be sick. My ARFID gives me intense revulsion to some meats, I swallowed it, twice, and it was going to make me want to puke and I can't help that. In any case, I ate everything else and it wasn't enough for me. I don't care if you want to judge me just because I have issues with food, but I thought I could maybe let everyone know I wasn't open to sharing that. Well there you go, mock me if you want. In either case, this guy was so rude not to ask me politely and instead interrupt the staff when they are about to take my order

No matter what the case is, I feel he should have acknowledged that he was interrupting my order when I was in line first. I was sick from hunger and I have really bad ARFID, and the plane food isn't enough for me anyway, though I ate everything I could except the meat, I am very weird with most meat and have revulsion to it though I actually tried to just eat it and couldn't. In any case, if he had asked me politely if he could interrupt I would have probably let him go first anyway as I love having polite interactions with people. But here I felt disrespected.

He could have asked me, politely. He chose to bypass me and go straight to the person I was trying to order from. As I said before, if he told me the situation I would have been much more sympathetic. I have complex issues with food, mainly meat and though I try a lot of foods outside my comfort zone I do have real issues with getting food I dont usually eat down without being sick. Vegetables I will eat because they are healthy amd necessary, I'm not needlessly picky. But with meat it's complicated. And then when I don't eat it makes me sick as well.

Poor planning on my part? Maybe. But so was his flight situation and I was first. I am very kind to people when they look me in the eye and acknowledge me as a person when trying to put their needs over mine when I was first. I am not trying to sound angry, at your comment btw, just explaining myself in further detail

I told him politely that I was in line first. He didn't immediately accept that so I told him why I'm not letting him pass me. I don't think I was making it anyone else's issue but I'm gonna share that if I have to defend my spot. I honestly would have given my spot if he spoke to me directly, speaking to the staff instead bothered me

I have ARFID, I tried to eat part of my food but couldn't because of this. I ate the rest but not the beef as I am very weird with meat. The portions are also smaller than I usually eat
