Is OP technically correct and within his rights? Sure. Would sharing some fruits have gone a long way to ease that tension? Absolutely.

She could have just called him and said 'sorry, false alarm', and he would never have known that he had been tested.

As much as every New Yorker likes to imagine otherwise, New Jersey is not just Newark extended to the size of a state.

I love how the response is "I've lined up my BFF to be with me during birth" and not "I've sent this piss baby back to his abusive mother with a suitcase (go bag lol) and divorce papers"

We (m33, f28) have been together 3 years. Engaged for 1. Before her I dated Sarah(f34). We are all acquaintances and while we don’t hang out with Sarah, occasionally we run into her. While my break up with Sarah wasn’t amicable, we are very cordial now. We don’t talk. But my fiancée didn’t keep it this way did she?

We were at house warming party and Sarah was there which set my fiancée on edge and I noticed that but I didn’t say anything because she’s an adult. Then I overheard her talking to Sarah and some other girls. My fiancée was laughing and telling Sarah omg you are so fat now. It made me ick. When Sarah left I asked my fiancée wtf? She laughed and said it was nothing Sarah did look like she gained weight. She left to get more wine and one other friend told me that my fiancée always bullied Sarah.

I don’t want to be married to a bully I tried talking and discussing why it wasn’t ok with my fiancée but she was brushing it off not seeing any problems. I broke up with her. She started crying and begging but I said it was over. I don’t want to be married to a bully. She called me the AH and that I chose Sarah over her, my fiancée. Now everyone is calling me AH.

The only reason I can think of to why she calls me the AH is that my fiancée liked me way before we got together. Even before I got together with Sarah. So maybe it was personal for her given the new information that my fiancée never liked Sarah (and I got together with her)


Edit: I want to apologize for using “ick” as a 33 year old man. Many are disturbed by it LOL, sorry guys

My (38M) wife's (33F) friend (33F) is back from abroad and their group decided to get together to meet her. They were going to bring their spouse for this dinner so wife asked me to join. She told me to behave and I did. Her friend had fake accent which I didn't mock. She was brand addict, show off and another typical foreign return. I didn't say anything to her.

We hadmet at a chinese restaurant where we often go. I asked waiter to get me a fork and he did. This is when I noticed her friend was looking at me as if I committed some sin. When I started eating with fork she said to my wife that we could have gone to some other restaurants if there was a problem. She was trying to make fun of me for not being able to use chopsticks. So I kept th fork aside and dig in with myhands and everyone but my wife and friend on the table started laughing. I didn't think of it more than asa joke at the time.

When we came home my wife was visibly pissed. I asked her if I did anything and she said I embarassed her infront of her friend and her spouse. Now she is not talking to me since then.

quote:

I'm going to read between the lines a bit here. Your wife asked you to behave, which can only mean you act out publicly often. The fact the friend said 'if there was a problem' rather than something more snide makes me think you potentially made a deal about asking for a fork.

Then when you got home, you asked what you did despite knowing full well what you had done.

This story is biased from your perspective, so I reckon the truth of the matter is going to be somewhat different.

Has your wife ever used the term 'exhausting' when arguing with you?

She is people pleaser. Which makes me want to act more like this to balance things out.

I think the OP is not a native English speaker but maybe they meant that the friend was living abroad and came back and is now acting snobbish

Edit: It may be Indian English since OP said he's Indian

Honestly laughing at someone for asking for a fork rather than chopsticks seems pretty lovely to me. But the OP also sounds like an rear end in a top hat.

That's total projection on his part, she just asked if there was a problem and if they should have gone to another restaurant
