i had no idea asian cooking would bother me. i eat asian food all the time. we did identify certain sauces that were being used but after eliminating them, the smell persists. the smell comes from the persons room too, not just the kitchen. i think this is just an unfortunate situation. i have offered to pay their moving expenses and they will be moving out. the bottom line is that i should not have said this will work out, i should have said lets work on it.
it went like this- i noticed the smell. i asked the person to help me figure out how to work on it. we ran fans and opened windows. that did not help. we identified the sauce. that did not help. i said this may not work out you may need to move. we tried to cook on a different schedule. that also did not work. finally i said sorry, this is not working out, you need to move.
i knew i was sensitive to smells but i had no idea that someone's cooking would have this impact on me.
