She Refused To Pay For Her Boyfriend’s Meal After They Went Out To Eat And He Rudely Destroyed Her Food Before She Could Take A Picture Of It For Her Blog
Do you know someone who believes your “phone eats first” when you’re out to dinner?
If you’ve never heard that phrase before, it’s what some ‘foodies’ say before snapping their obligatory picture of their food at a restaurant.
One woman recently refused to pay for her boyfriend’s meal the last time they were out at dinner because he rudely destroyed her food before she could take a picture of it for her food blog.
She has an Instagram account dedicated to posting pictures of food from local restaurants in her city.
“I don’t turn meals into a whole photoshoot production when I go out, but I like to snap a few photos of everything as it comes out,” she explained.
“I’ve got about 1000 followers, it’s just a hobby for me, but I have made friends with some other bloggers, and we like to go out and get pics together and try new restaurants.”
However, her boyfriend can’t stand that she takes pictures of food whenever they’re out eating and always makes a big fuss whenever she does. He rolls his eyes and intentionally messes up his plate using his fork before she can snap a quick picture.
It got to the point where she’d only take pictures whenever she dined with other foodie friends and wouldn’t take them in front of him.
However, money has been tight for her due to some medical bills, and she hasn’t been able to go out to eat as much as she’d like. So now, the only opportunity she gets to eat out is during date nights with her boyfriend.

Recently, they went out on a Sunday night. They alternate paying for meals, and it was her night to pay. She had a serious conversation with him, asking if he would allow her to enjoy the evening, and told him she’d be taking quick pictures of the food when it came out.
“I told him I would appreciate it if he could spare the 30 seconds for me to snap a pic of the appetizer and his meal on nights that I was paying,” she recalled.
Her boyfriend half-heartedly told her she could do what she wanted. When the appetizer came out, she got a picture and was very happy. But when their pasta entrees came out, everything went downhill.
She went to snap a picture of his plate, but he messed it up before she could. Then, when she went to take a picture of her plate, he reached over with his fork and stirred up the pasta, messing with the picture of her own meal.
Furious with her boyfriend’s immature behavior, she told him she refused to pay for his half of the meal. Instead of apologizing, he became frustrated and said he wouldn’t have ordered a cocktail if he knew he had to pay.
Now, he says she owes him because he believes she shouldn’t be allowed to suddenly change her mind and not pay for their meal after they’ve ordered.
How would you react if you were in her position?
