    Font - Posted by u/SarahJake2022 6 days ago 13 13 6 22 AITA flipping out on my fiance for cancelling all the vegan food options from our wedding food menu behind my back? Not the A-hole My fiance (31 male) and I (25 female) are getting married soon. There wasn't much that disagreed on during the wedding planning except for food. Me and my family are vegans, and there so many reasons why we chose this lifestyle and one of them being that we have a history of health issues. My fiance and his famil

    Font - However, When deciding on the wedding food menu, I wanted to add 4-5 vegan options. My fiance and his mom objected saying it was a waste of money over food that 'isn't real food'. They also argued that this would be offensive for 'their' guests and suggested my vegan options just be "the good ol' salads & appetizers" (his mom wanted cupcakes lol). I said no because for one it's me and my family who's paying. and two I want to make my guests feel welcome and not be treated as second class

    Font - The other day, I found out that he had cancelled all the vegan options and took them off the menu completely and behind my back. I was seething. I called him at work but he kept hanging up on me. I went straight to his workplace and confronted him there and just flipped out on him. He was stunned to see me. He at first said it was his mom's idea then told me to go home because I was making a scene at the office. the fight continued at home and he defended himself by saying that I sort of

    Font - UPDATE: So his mom messaged me earlier to try to get me to listen to what she had to say after I kept ignoring her phonecalls. She spent long walls of text just to "address" what I did at her son's workplace, calling it all kinds of stuff from immature to unhinged. She then went to explain how she's noticed that me and my family kept "acting dismissive" of her son's input and "contributations" to the wedding. She said that she noticed my behavior towards him and her entire family and want

    Font - She finally mentioned how "bad" this whole situation is making me look, and said that she and her son had already offered a number of compromises that I chose to brush off and decided to make it my "weird" hill to die on. She said that not only her son is upset but she and "the family" are as well after hearing about it and suggested I just agrre on their compromise and be done with it. This pissed me off beyond belief I responded by letting her know that I'm still standing my ground on t

So, he: 1. has no clue what Vegans actually eat, and no interest in learning. 2. believes having food for your family is offensive to theirs, while having no food for your family is perfectly fine. 3. doesn't respect your input and your money. 4. makes decisions about matters important to you behind your back. 5. either can't stand up to his mom or uses her as his scapegoat. That's a lot of things to be really angry about.

    Font - Posted by 7 hours ago 20 19 UPDATE: AITA for flipping out on my fiance for cancelling all the vegan food options from our wedding food menu behind my back? (didn't realize how long the title was lol). So, the talk didn't go well. I waited for him to come home so we could have a final conversation about it "but" he still insisted on his stance. for more details, his family are a bit on the heavy side (most of them are obese). Nothing wrong with that, they're perfectly within their right to

    Font - I tried so hard to focus on the issue at hand, but I noticed there was a pattern of this behavior. he said it wasn't true, and that this was just an attempt for me to throw past conflicts at him in order to win the current one. he claimed he tried to reason with me about why and how his guests might see those vegan options as "offensive", also said that his family love food and consider it a "big deal", and how he didn't want his family to feel like there's certain options that they "coul

    Font - normally, I'm a person of rational discussions and compromises...I'm ALL about compromises, I'd compromised on much bigger matters than just food but like people said....it's not about the food anymore (if it ever was!!)like...he'd literally lose nothing if he let me have what I wanted but apparently, he was willing to lose it all over this which's fine by me. I gave him back the ring and called everything off. I just couldn't envision myself living like this any longer..having to walk on

    Font - . 7 hr. ago Good for you! Marriage IS about compromise, and it doesn't sound like your ex is interested in compromising, or even letting you have a say in things. That isn't a partnership. 104 Reply Share OP - 6 hr. ago 243 2 Thank you! and you're right. honestly? I felt kind of hasitant about posting an update.
