Lol...I'd like to think I could do the same...But I tend to eat what's put in front of me...A product of my upbringing. I've heard it is polite in some societies to leave something on the plate though. Not sure where, maybe in middle eastern culture? I cant recall where I heard that though.

I am from Istanbul. We like to think of ourselves as part of Europe, but in fact, it is a Middle East country in most ways. But it is far eastern cultures, namely China where leaving behind a bite or two on the plate is considered polite. It shows the host that their meal is filling and substantial.
I, on the other hand, show my boyfriend that I am being careful about my figure even though after a two plates of pasta!
Yes, I had heard that leaving food on the plate meant something like that...A satisfied diner and a bounteous host.
So, also is the benefit of keeping ones figure in eye-wateringly great shape for ones partner; In your case your boyfriend. I do the same for my wife and she in return...Be sometimes a snack sneaks in...😂
