A young woman had been enjoying the warm and sunny weather so much that she decided it would be nice to host a dinner party for all of her friends.

So, she invited everyone over and also extended the invitation to their significant others.

But, one of her friend’s partners, Rick, had always rubbed her the wrong way. Don’t get me wrong– the pair got along just fine. But, something about Rick’s overzealous personality did not sit well with her.

“He is one of those guys who try to make the most bizarre things into his entire personality– the biggest one being that he is a ‘huge garlic guy,'” she explained. Odd flex, but okay.

She, on the other hand, can not relate to his love of garlic any less. In fact, she, unfortunately, has gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)– which is severely triggered by garlic or alcohol consumption.

So, in an effort to avoid any adverse reactions during her own dinner party, she decided to skip the garlic as a recipe ingredient and opt for cooked onions instead– which infuriated Rick.

It all began after she plated the table and everyone sat down to eat. Most of her guests regarded that the food was delicious, but Rick immediately expressed an issue.

He first commented that the meal felt like it was “missing something.” Then, he asked her how much garlic was used in the dish.

And when she revealed that the meal did not have any garlic in it at all, he went absolutely ballistic.

“He asked why I would even have a dinner party if I had such a limited palate and said that he would not have people over for Thanksgiving dinner if he were a vegetarian,” she recalled.

Understandably, she was taken aback and reiterated that she has GERD– so she cannot eat garlic. Still, though, Rick did not get the point. Instead, he tried to call her out for drinking a hard seltzer with dinner. “I had flattened it, and these are the only alcoholic beverages I can drink,” she reasoned.

Nonetheless, Rick kept carrying on about the garlic and arguing with her. Then, at one point, he even threw his hands out and asked the group, “Come on guys, am I really the jerk here?”

Finally, Rick’s girlfriend– who is actually her friend– stepped in and told her boyfriend to calm down.

But, even though this dinner party happened one month ago, Rick will not drop it. He has continued calling her a jerk and claims it was selfish to host a dinner party where she drank alcohol but did not cook with garlic.

So now, since this bizarre feud has persisted for so long, she is wondering if opting to cook for her friends without garlic was truly a jerky thing to do.

If you host a dinner party, are the ingredients used up to you? Does every dish need garlic to be tasty, or was Rick just being rude?
