A Cup Of Coffee

Just like you my friend, i let my friends do their cups of coffee. I may be a friend to them , but i don't know how they like their coffee to taste. I do drink coffee, and it's just during breakfast. For the rest of the day, it depends on my mood. If i am sleepy in the middle of the day , i make one. If i had a big lunch, a cup of coffee would be a very good one to down it.

I think the best option would be to let each person fix their own cup of coffee. I assume that in this situation, your coffee is just a regular cup of joe, correct? For regular coffee, I usually pour in some half-and-half and about 2-3 tsps. of Truvia (which is much sweeter than sugar). Then again if I have flavored half-and-half (like hazelnut flavored) in the house then I'll use that without Truvia. Every once in a while I will get flavored coffee beans (like chocolate hazelnut or vanilla almond) which only require me to use regular half-and-half [without Truvia]. In any given situation, my opinion would be to let your friend fix her own coffee but also for you as the host, provide her with options that will allow her to make that perfect cup every time.

you just aware of her feeling that she may felt intimidated f you were the one to prepare the coffee and she dislike so may eel upset and she too. so it is best to ask her f you are unsure or f she like it then she would be the one to prepare her own coffee according to her own taste. since, some people dislike the other coffee prepare by people whom they do not know or since develop there own preferences.

I'm a coffee enthusiast and I try or experimenting stuff on my coffee too but I won't put weird stuff on my coffee tho haha I just can't drink black coffee I alway need a creamer and little sweet taste of coffee??

wow!!! nice friendship complete 20 years means more year and I know your nature is good looks like your smile so your friend is lucky person. I not like coffee but I like tea and when I will came there then I will drink the tea.

No it is not wrong. I'm surprised she is not happy to fix her own coffee. I know that I prefer to fix my own cup of coffee than have my husband do it. I like sugar and creamer in my coffee and he doesn't seem to put enough of it in there. So I don't get upset when he doesn't make me a cup. I'm just happy that he has brewed it and I can get it myself.

Well , each one of us has preferences , right ? So , your friends has her oreferences, and so do you. In fact , I do too ! Ha ha ! For me it is easy. I just drink 3-in-1 packs, easy, and oh yes, tasty too.

No it is not wrong to think an adult can make their own coffee, but she probably thinks since she is at your place you could make it for her. Also she probably thinks you know after all these yrs how she likes it. If you have trouble making her coffee for any reason at all just let her know. Explain things to her and she might not be upset. Don't ruin a 20 yr friendship over something as unimportant as fixing a cup of coffee.

it is nice to drink coffee with friends and chatting. I prefer to drink coffee with milk but my friend he likes to drink coffee with sugar only.

No its not wrong for your friend to expect you to bring her a cup of coffee..whats wrong is that you friend dosen't realize that your coffee taste is different from hers and she needs to realize that...You don;t do anything but black coffee and she wants other stuff in her coffee and it seems like you don't even know what it is.. How can you bring her a cup of coffee the way she likes it when you don't even know what the additives she put in her ooffee. .so whats the difference if you don' bring her a cup of coffee or you being her a cup of coffee which is horribe to her???

I also like strong coffee but with little cream and sugar. But if it's really something good, I can have it black but not too strong. Everyone in my family are big coffee drinkers and they seem to prefer those instant coffee and those 3 in 1 variants because everyone's always in a hurry in the morning to bother fixing a brewed one. Good thing that there's a lot of variety in the market now that we can choose which one is th eleast ghastly when it comes to those instant creamers and sweeteners.

This is the first time I am coming across a concept of having coffee with caramel. I prefer having coffee with sugar / milk only & sometimes in its original 'black 'form. Did anyone ever try coffee with some honey?

In the UK, the majority of people drink coffee with milk and sugar - I would imagine that black coffee being such a staple in the US goes back to the the frontier days, when it was not feasible to carry milk and sugar around. My own take on this is if someone comes to your house and you offer them a drink or beverage, then it is only proper that you provide the beverage that is requested.

You are the friend of hoseasmate or her earlier subject "Is my friend selfish or am I sensitive?" just reminded you of the problem ?:P Anyway... maybe your friend thinks that after 20 years you should know how she likes her coffee, just by seeing what she was doing for all those years; just explain her your problem and don't make such a big case out of it ;)

hi macdingolinger no you are not wrong as an adult who loves good coffee I would also expect her to fix her own as she just has to pollute with a bunch of stuff.I would hand a cup of black coffee and say " hop to it as there's all the additives right there" then let her fix it for herself. Why people have to put a bunch of stuff in it is beyond me. I see nothing wrong with her fixing her own cup of coffee the way\ she prefers it.

Im a big time coffee drinker here.. but only sweat n low for me. Have a great weekend.
