Woman Puts Entitled Man-Baby On Blast For Having A Meltdown About Not Going Out To Eat

I went out on what was probably a third date with this guy, and he decided we were going to go to Red Lobster, even though I had told him countless times since we started talking that I don't eat meat. I let it slide because I liked him. Then, when the waiter brought around those cheddar biscuits, this guy asked me to put them all in my purse so he could eat them later and the waiter would bring us more.

Weird, right? But hey, at least he paid.

Unlike This Guy, Who Literally Had A Meltdown About Red Lobster

Teonna was messaging the man she had been seeing, making some dinner plans that were a bit different than the ones they had made earlier that day, which was to go out for dinner.

She Was Honest With Him

She told him up-front that she knew he wanted to go out, but after paying her bills and getting groceries that day, she didn't feel she was in a place to spend money on taking him out.

A Change Of Plans, Yes, But We've All Been There

Instead of being understanding and being grateful that she was willing to cook for him, he literally started having a meltdown, blowing up her phone with his self-righteous foolishness about "his level."

He Was Not Impressed

Ladies, let me ask you something. Would you let a man stay in your life who was going to defame your character just because you were a little tight until next payday and couldn't take him out?

He Literally Would Not Stop

"You're not where I'm at physically, mentally, spiritually, or financially." Boy, PLEASE! If that were even remotely true, you could buy your own dinner, and you wouldn't be carrying on like this.

Then He Basically Told Her It Was Over

Imagine someone telling you that you just aren't cut out to be on his level? Also, can we talk about his health? Red Lobster four times a week? That doesn't seem right.

Like, Is He Done Yet?

Needless to say, after he had his big long temper tantrum, she didn't quite know what to say. The thing is, someone like that isn't going to change, are they? He'll never see reason.

After She Posted His Rant, She Cleared Some Things Up

This little meltdown seems to have just been the straw that broke the camel's back, because according to Teonna, this isn't the first thing he's done that's rubbed her the wrong way.

He's A Bit Of A Complainer

Who Was Saying She Deserved It?

Whoever was telling her that she deserved it is seriously insane, because even though she did change the plans, she didn't deserve to be laid into like that. There is no reason to talk to another person that way.

Things Got Worse

To make matters worse, he decided that he was going to take to Facebook to try and defend himself, which you can imagine is just a bunch of unpunctuated garbage.

It Was A Lot To Take In

It's actually wild to me that he thought he was justifiable in acting out the way that he did. There were lots of people in the comments trying to decide what his sign was...they mostly agreed on him being a Scorpio.

People were leaving lots of messages on her thread telling her that he was, in fact, crazy and that she wasn't overreacting in being upset about the situation. They were also quick to call out his apparent love for Red Lobster.

People Also Started Having A Bit Of Fun

A woman has turned to social media to find out whether she was in the wrong for "secretly" feeding her boyfriend a plant-based diet.

The only issue is that she never intended it to be a secret.

It might sound like the plot of a sitcom, but for one woman, it has played out in real life and totally affected her relationship.

The anonymous woman posted her situation in the popular r/AmITheA**hole thread on Reddit.

Up until now, it's been smooth sailing and they have "gotten along wonderfully except for this past issue."

"When we went out to dinner for the first time, I told him I was vegan when ordering my dish and he just kind of went "oh, cool" and started talking about something else. "

Her vegan diet never really came up again after that.

She Never Actively Tried To Hide That She Was Making Plant-Based Dishes

Even though she and John never openly discussed her dietary preferences again, each time he came to her house for lunch or dinner she prepared plant-based meals for the two of them.

OP adds "I've never tried to actively hide this from him."

She Thought He Knew She Was Using Meat Alternative Products

For example, "When he asked what we were having [for dinner] I'd say things like "burgers" and I assumed that he knew it would naturally be something like impossible burgers."

At this point, he's starting to seem a little aloof. It's also clear he wasn't helping prepare any meals.

Unfortunately, this led to more arguing and him leaving her apartment. He hasn't returned since.
