my girlfriend has a weird hangup

for some reason my girl gets really upset when I put milk in in cereal. She calls this "mixing the food", as if these two foods are not supposed to go together.
So like, if we're chillin on the couch and I go and get a bowl of cereal n milk from the kitchen, then sit back down on the couch with her, she'll be like: "EEEEEEEWWWWWW, gross you're mixing the food OMFG!!!" And then run out of the room until I'm done eating.
Apparently 'mixing the food' applies to other things too, like chocolate sauce and milk, and some other examples I can't remember. Anyone else feel this way? Are there other people who get weirded out by this or is my gf just an isolated nutjob?

your girlfriend sounds kind of crazy...but if your getting laid I would just ignore that problem.

Nutjob! What the fuck else are you supposed to put in there? Does she eat muffins, cakes or any sort of patry? Alot of milk and egs go into those....that would be "mixing as well?
Does she wait for her vegetables to digest before she eats bread or something else with them? I would think they would get "mixed" as well in her belly.
I don't know, guess I am just lucky, my GF just hates when I chew gum. I could piss on the living room floor and she would be like "Nice"!

i could understand if you were eating ketchup and carrots or something but milk and cereal go together like tits and booze. Your lady is crazy. Tell her to call me.

I know, right. I've put forth all those arguments to her you know, like bread is milk and flour cooked together; it all goes to the same place when you digest it, etc.
Her aversion is obviously illogical and compulsory. She can't logically justify it, its one of those irrational obsessions. When she gets home I'll try to get her to explain it to me again, because her explanation of it is so illogical its hilarious.
Also, her family is the same way. They eat their cereal dry.

yeah, she thinks nachos are gross, too.
I'm gonna show her this thread when she gets home from class. That way she can see her little hangup is NOT NORMAL. I need as many people as possible to come forward and say that this fear of wet cereal is totally whacko, so she can see how strange it is to the man on the street.
oh, man, I'm gonna get in trouble. but its so worth it

My Aunt Jeanine is JUST like that.
She can't have different foods touching on her plate either.
Weird.

That doesn't leave a lot of room for ANY food... what does she eat?
Sounds like a phobia that's well worth getting over.

Does she feel this way about any food:
gravy/butter/sour cream on potatoes I dunno, never seen her eat it
ketchup/gravy on fries I don't think she likes that
marshmallows in hot chocolate I'm in the south, no reason to drink hot chocolate ever
stuffing in turkey pretty sure she likes that
sauce on pasta I know she likes pasta sauce and pizza sauce
I'm not saying she doesn't like any food thats mixed, there are just certain combos that most people would think of as normal that she can't even stand to be around.

After reading your post, I can't help but hear Dustin Hoffman (The Rain Man) saying, "Mixing the food. mixing the food. mixing the food" over and over.

Maybe she was traumatized by somebody jizzing in her cereal then shitting in her milk, and is just afraid to admit it.

Is the sex worth her being weird? Yes? Then eat alone. If not, try to find videos of food being digested in the stomach.
It depends if you want to help her over her phobia?
