On Sunday, my friend and her boyfriend came over for a roast dinner. (Roast Dinner for those outside the UK is beef, Yorkshire Puddings, roast potatoes, veg and gravy.)

    Font - Font - My friend's boyfriend is a vegan, and I thought this would be a fun challenge. Making a roast is a lot of work, but I didn't want meat eaters to miss out for one vegan, so I made two completely different dinners.

    Font - Product - Anyway, I served the dinners feeling pretty proud of myself, and the boyfriend didn't even mention the meal, just said thanks at the end. I was a little bit miffed he overlooked the work I put into his dinner but whatever.

    Font - The boyfriend asked for a coffee with regular milk as he fancied "a treat"... I must have pulled a face, no way that I didn't and said, "ok." I'm pissed off at this point, considering the effort I went for respecting his diet requirements.

    Rectangle - I return with coffees, and he is scoffing my part of the crème brûlée, leaving me with his vegan dessert. I said, "that wasn't vegan", and he went ", eh, doesn't matter."

    Font - I kind of lost my s: it and pointed out how rude it was it him to ask for his dinner to be 100% vegan, as far as not cooking potatoes in certain things and how I went above and beyond trying to make his meal pleasant for him to throw it in my face.

    Font - He laughed and said, "chill, not that big of a deal." Anyway, he thinks I'm a huge AH, and his GF/my friend is conflicted and in an awkward position. If I've been the AH, I would apologise to clear the air for my friend, but I feel that he should.

And if it doesn't he will just eat non vegan food? wtf? He made you do all the work for nothing + he stole your desert

    Font - 8bitevil · 2h NTA - i'm vegan and i would never expect anyone to go out of their way to make me a special vegan dish, not to mention an entire vegan meal. in fact, i usually bring my own food to these types of get-togethers. if someone DID take the time to research, purchase, and prepare this sort of meal for me, i think i would cry in shock and appreciation.
