Birthday disappointment leads to family conflict 😕

The woman in this story describes her disappointment with her boyfriend's homemade cake for her birthday after he said he couldn't afford a nicer one. She had suggested they go to a more expensive restaurant, but he said they couldn't afford it and they ended up eating at home.

While the meal was good, the cake was not what she had hoped for. Her boyfriend's daughter had helped make the cake and he now says that the woman upset his daughter when she expressed her disappointment. The woman is now asking Reddit if she is the a**hole for not appreciating the effort put into the cake.
