Hey Robin, and a warm welcome to the forum.
And hey, how can they possibly complain..things SHOULD match!!!!! ;-)
*giggles* Maybe you should change circle of friends then?
You know they are accepting it fully when they just burst out laughing when the waitress at the restaurant says the chef can cook anything I like and asked her for a sub au naturel with an apple in her mouth! ;-)

Hope you will make plenty of friends and have an enjoyable time here
