Gift Criticism Leads to a Tense Family Dinner

Our storyteller is at a family dinner, wearing a cherished Costco sweatshirt their boyfriend gifted them. When someone compliments the sweatshirt, their mom scoffs and says she wouldn’t stay with a man who gave her a Costco sweatshirt as a gift. Our storyteller, fed up with the criticism, fires back: “Well, I wouldn’t stay with a man who hits my kids, so I guess we have different priorities.” This leads to an awkward silence and angry parents, who demand an apology after everyone else leaves. But our storyteller refuses to apologize. ‍♀️ Were they in the wrong or just standing their ground? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
