People That Will Not Try New Things

I really can't stand people that just won't try something new.

For example, people that won't try new food because of how it appears.

Look, if there's other people there that say it's good, you could just try it.

If you don't like it, you win and everyone is happy.

If you end up liking it... well aren't you happy you freaking tried it now?

If you never try it then it's all you. You're the one missing out.

Maybe if it was ONE thing that you didn't ever try... but it's every time it's not something old or simple.

The same thing goes for people that won't try other new things.

You can't say you dislike something you've never tried.

All I'm saying, is just try it, ok. What do you have to lose?

That's right. Nothing.

It's ok. They just have to get over it.

Or, maybe they just DON'T like it. People have certain LIKES and HATES. Sometimes people don't like, well Baby Corn soaking in Pickle Juice. Well, if they won't try it no matter what. what can you do?

I recommend, you don't just PUSH Them in. Give them smaller portions, and work thier way up. Otherwise, if you keep trying to force them, they'll start to resent you.

Then let them resent you, this world grows stagnant without a constant supply of new experiences.
(Convincing someone to try something new seems a fresh experience every time.)

I resent being told I have to do anything. You want me to try something new, you wait until I'm damn good and ready; the more you push me, the more I'm going to dig in and resist.

How, pray tell, do they know if they LIKE said baby corn in pickle juice if they've never tried it (no matter what)?

Just don't say that you hate something that you've never tried.

And if you want to hate it, then try it and hate it.

That's better than not trying it at all, isn't it?
