This 20-year-old woman and her boyfriend, who is 21, decided to go out for a dinner date this past Saturday night.

In the past, they never had any issues eating outside of their home, either. However, she recently discovered that she has celiac disease. And since they live in a small town, she barely knows of any restaurants that serve gluten-free food.

Due to this, she now likes to know where they are going in advance. That way, she can speak with the restaurant and see what gluten-free options they can provide.

So, two days before their dinner date, she was talking with her boyfriend at around 10:50 p.m. after a long day of college classes. And eventually, her boyfriend claimed he was going to sleep.

But before he could go, she asked her boyfriend to wait and inquired about what he wanted to eat on Saturday.

At the time, her boyfriend said he wasn’t sure and just told her to decide. However, she pointed out how it was always up to her to pick and asked for his help.

By that point, her boyfriend claimed he just didn’t care and told her it was stupid to have that conversation a whole two days before their date. He also said he wanted to have some private time in peace before going to bed.

And honestly, this really upset her. Still, she recalled how her boyfriend kept going.

“He proceeded to tell me how his superior mind would solve my problems and told me to join on some Facebook group for gluten-free people in my area,” she explained.

Then, even after she admitted to not liking Facebook all that much, her boyfriend told her that she would just have to deal with it.

After that, she decided to come clean and admit how upset she was. She even started crying, too. Yet, she was still the one who ended up apologizing.

“Because he said that I should know, after four years of dating, that he doesn’t care what we eat, and it seems like I always think about it,” she recalled.

Even after she apologized, though, the argument only escalated. Her boyfriend claimed that he didn’t care about her apologies or her feelings. Plus, he told her that she should be thankful he didn’t just tell her to go away.

At that point in their fight, she actually started to panic. So, she decided to interrupt the conversation and say goodnight just to curb their conflict.

“But I don’t know if I was really wrong here to continue to ask that question,” she vented.

Still, while she doesn’t want to feel alone in these decisions, she’s been left wondering whether asking her boyfriend what he wanted to eat on their date two days in advance was really a “stupid” thing to do.

Can you understand why she wanted her boyfriend’s support? Do you think his response was warranted? Should she have apologized, or was her boyfriend in the wrong? How would you have reacted in this situation?
