He Likes To Throw Wine And Cheese Parties For His Friends In His MFA Program, But He’s Thinking It’s Time To Ask One Girl To Stop Coming To His Parties Because She Picks Apart How Well-Off He Is

This 28-year-old guy originally went to college for computer science, and he currently works in the tech industry.

He makes excellent money, but back in 2021, he thought it would be a great idea to sign up for an MFA program so he could do something with the enthusiasm that he has for writing.

Now, his house is located not far from where his campus is, and he loves having people over. So, he began having little parties at his house for his friends in his MFA program.

He holds these parties almost every month, and he only invited approximately 10 people to them at first.

“The parties are nicer than a dorm party (think wine and cheese) but nothing super fancy,” he explained.

“In 2022, a new class of students came in, and I invited them to the parties as well. One young woman (22ish) and I got off on the wrong foot. During our first conversation, I mentioned my trip to Vienna last summer, and she said, “Ooh, Vienna,” in a sarcastic tone.”

“Our conversation quickly tapered off after that. I was embarrassed because I could see how I might have come off as showing off, but I honestly did not mean for it to read that way. Subsequent to that, she has made it pretty clear that she does not like me, specifically because I have some money.”

This girl never misses an opportunity to make nasty comments about people who are well-off, as well as people who are landlords.

He is a landlord, as he rents one of his rooms out to a student, and this girl is completely aware of this.

So, it’s obvious she likes to make digs at him, even though he keeps inviting her over to the parties that he has.

“As a bit, she once pretended to be a sommelier and sarcastically appraised the wines I had on the table,” he said.

“I understand that not all of her resentment is directed at me, specifically, but it still feels very uncomfortable.”

“She came to the MFA straight from undergrad and leads a ‘starving artist’ lifestyle, and I am sympathetic to that, but several of the other students share similar circumstances and political views, and I have never felt the same way around them.”

Since this girl dislikes him so much, he figured she would stop coming to his parties, but nope, she’s shown up to every single one.

Her presence has resulted in him feeling incredibly nervous about the clothes he should wear, what drinks and food he should buy for the parties, and what topics he should chat about with his guests.

It’s wearing him out to have to worry about every little thing that she could scrutinize, and this girl is making his own parties no fun for him to be at.

“So, I would like to explicitly stop inviting her,” he continued. “It will definitely create a little drama since everybody else is still invited.”

“Over the past two years, these parties have almost become semi-official events for the students in the program, so it definitely feels strange to exclude exactly one person.”

“I know that it’s ultimately my house and my party, so I am perfectly within my rights, but I also realize that I’m coming from a place of privilege, so I wanted a gut check.”

He knows that if he does tell this girl she is no longer welcome in his home, she’ll turn it around and use it to confirm her worst thoughts about him, but he really thinks it’s time to tell her to take a hike.

Do you think it’s ok for him to begin excluding her because she picks apart how well-off he is?
