I'm going to accept food from this guy
Why are you accepting food from the man?
I like him and I want to be friends with him
If you don't have a reason to doubt the man and his intentions, it is okay to accept food from him. This will be a good way to establish a connection between the both of you.
This is the first step in me getting close to him.
Well, food is a great way to get people together. Being able to eat his cooking must be a joy for you.
