Most people can’t stand the sound of someone chewing with their mouth open.

It’s disgusting and unnecessary, at least that’s what the person in this story feels.

And probably most people, to be honest.

His father does not agree, though.

Check out how this led to disastrous results.

AITA for leaving dinner when being told to?

I came home from college for thanksgiving and had thanksgiving with my father.

This did not occur during Thanksgiving day.

A couple days after we were eating together at the dinner table.

This is the gross part.

My father, who was next to me, was eating with his mouth open and smacking his lips obnoxiously.

I took a deep breath because I knew if I hadn’t I’d be rude.

When something’s bothering me I tend to overreact so I took a second and then asked him “Dad, could you please chew with your mouth closed? It’s bothering me.”

I made sure to ask in a soft tone so I didn’t get misinterpreted as rude.

A surprise came next.

My father then responded “**** off, eat somewhere else if you don’t like it.”

It shocked me for a moment because I really didn’t expect him to say that.

I got up, took care of my plate.

Then I drove to my mother’s house and stayed at her home for the night.

AITA?

I really don’t think so, but my father’s wife said I should have never said anything to begin with.

I do think I may have overreacted with leaving his house all together.

Here is what folks are saying.

It breaks my heart that he feels wrong to seek respect and leave toxicity.

I don’t know why he would find it offensive, but okay.

It sounds like his dad is just like this. Not worth it.

Ew my sister had a friend who ate like this. Disgusting.

That’s the impression I got. He sounds awful.

It’s hard, but sometimes you need to walk away for good.

No one should scream at their kid for a reason like this.
