Ahhh, I've been your friend before, OP. I like to think I wasn't quite as abrupt and jerky about it (I certainly never called anything garbage), but I had a friend that always tried stuff that I was super into, and when she tried to get me to try a show she loved, I was really hesitant. (The show's a bit notorious, and I already had a bad impression of it.)

I did end up trying a few episodes, and I tried being honest with her that I really wasn't enjoying it, but she ended up pulling the "you have to give it a CHANCE" card and I ended up marathoning three entire seasons out of guilt. And then the fact that I'd only grown less and less interested in it really pissed her off, because she'd gotten into so many of my things, and she felt like I wasn't putting in my fair time. Which like... ugghhh I can definitely see where she was coming from, and I did feel bad, but if there had been something I liked that she hated I would never have kept guilting her into more of it? Idk. It's a tough situation, I guess.

Oh no, I'm so sorry!
tbh I don't remember forcing friends to continue watching the show I like if they already checked 1-2 eps and didn't like it, but I'll make sure to not do that, ever! I wouldn't want to guilt friends into my fandoms, that's no fun at all, for all parties involved!
and I'm not upset when my friends don't like things I like, in the secret it was the reaction itself that put me off
