He Freaked Out On His Girlfriend For Making A Dessert To Bring To His Mom’s Dinner Party
A 26-year-old guy has been in a relationship with his 23-year-old girlfriend named Rosie for about one year so far.
Sadly, Rosie and his mom pretty much hate one another, and he says it’s because their personalities are just so polar opposite. His mom is incredibly traditional and private, whereas Rosie is absolutley not that.
“My mom is a really picky person and has never been happy with anyone I date over the years but I usually ignore her because it’s not her life,” he explained.
“Yes, I always shut down my mother’s snarky comments about anyone I date.”
Tonight, his mom is throwing a dinner party, and she invited all of his family members to attend. In his family, anytime they have a party like this, everyone is expected to bring a dish to share.
He figured inviting Rosie to his mom’s party could be a great opportunity to see if they could fix things between them and improve their non-existent relationship.
He let Rosie know that she needed to make a dish, but that she should not make a dish that was sweet, since his mom can’t stand that.
He made lasagna and suggested that Rosie make anything, so long as it was not a dessert.
Despite his instructions, Rosie insisted on baking for the party, as that’s what she really is talented at creating.

He again reminded Rosie that a dessert was not going to fly with his mom, so he mentioned Googling something to make.
“She was quiet and about an hour later I came downstairs because I could smell something sweet and I found Rosie piping macaron batter,” he said.
“I freaked out. I started yelling about how I told her to specifically not make anything sweet because this was her one chance to get on my mother’s good side and I feel like she only made the dessert to be petty.”
“She got upset and told me to not raise my voice at her and that she was not doing it to be petty, she just doesn’t care what my mother thinks of her and that my mother is not the only guest at the dinner party.”
He was so upset that he let Rosie know that she could no longer come with him to the party, and Rosie had no problem staying home.
Right now, he’s feeling bad that he said that to her in the first place, since if Rosie does stick to her word and not attend the party, his mom will hate her even more.
He’s left wondering if he was wrong for asking Rosie to not bake a dish to bring to his mom’s party.
Do you think he’s in the wrong here, or was he right to try to get Rosie to be on his mom’s good side?
