Diplomacy.

My dear friend JianBo took me to quite a few restaurants. Those meals we had together were most enjoyable apart from one thing. Time after time she would use her chopsticks to load my plate with things I didn’t want or didn’t want as much of.

Do onto others what they do onto you.

Each time she put something on my plate I would express excessive gratitude and then return the favour. I would put something or three on her plate.

I am sure you can imagine that the kindly putting things on my plate ceased. A diplomatic solution.
