He gave her a Kindle, which is nice, but she never brought up wanting one, and it’s not very relevant to her. Then, when it was time for the cake, he brought her a plain grocery store vanilla cake.
“I was legitimately sad,” she remembered. “If I knew he was gonna drop the ball on this, I would have just gotten myself a pineapple cake months ago instead of waiting. I was on the verge of tears because of not getting the one thing I actually wanted, which was that stupid cake.”
Part of the reason why she was so sad is because she grew up in a household where she never got what she wanted from her parents, while her siblings always did. So the fact that she couldn’t even get the cake she wanted from her boyfriend really upset her.
She told her boyfriend how disappointed she was and that he should go home. He left and ended up going to the comedy show by himself, and her $30 ticket was wasted.
Her boyfriend is very annoyed with her and told her it was “just a cake.” He’s angry that she didn’t go to the comedy show and expects her to pay him back $30 for the wasted ticket.
She told him she shouldn’t have to pay because he was the one who dropped the ball. Instead of sympathizing with her, he Venmo requested her for $30.
Is she doing the right thing by refusing to pay her boyfriend for her ticket?
