AITA for stepping away when my pregnant wife kept demanding I drive back to get more food after restaurant messed her order?
I brought home my pregnant wife her favorite craving, garlic cheese stuffed crust pizza from a local business.
I did that, but the restaurant forgot to add the garlic.
She is not happy and says she can’t eat that.
I’m bummed too, but I say I’m sorry to hear that.
This man’s wife demanded that he go back to the pizza place and order a new one.
I tell her I don’t have a problem with it.
I say I’ll have half of it now and see if she changes her mind tomorrow.
I also check if she has a backup plan for what she’d rather eat now that I’m back home.
This makes her more frustrated, and she demands I go back and get a new pie.
He gave her other options to choose from.
Unfortunately, food delivery isn’t an option since this restaurant doesn’t offer it.
It’s not like she could choose that instead. I say thanks, but I’m good with what we got.
I tell her she can decide if she wants to choose something of her own.
I mention options like frozen food she likes that I stocked up on earlier this week.
I also suggest ordering something entirely new.
She continued to be mad, so he kept his reaction minimal to avoid adding to the fuel.
She keeps demanding and being angry.
I find myself getting upset too, so I don’t give her more reaction to fuel it.
In the end, I say, “I don’t see how this is helping either of us.”
You’re clearly upset, and I understand you’re feeling disappointed.
I feel like you’re taking it out on me. So I’m going to step back and go take a bath.”
