The Great Birthday Cake Debacle
Our birthday boy (34M) just wanted a simple chocolate cake with chocolate icing, but his girlfriend (36F) had other plans. She baked him a chocolate cake with a surprise layer of vanilla icing between the layers. When she noticed his disappointment and asked, he was honest about it, leading to hurt feelings and an argument. She even threatened to not make him a cake next year! Now, she’s not replying to his messages and he’s left wondering if he overreacted. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
