tl;dr: Girlfriend (36F) asks boyfriend (34M) if he wants her to bake a cake for his birthday, he requests chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. She bakes a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting on the outside and a layer of vanilla frosting inside, something that he’s had in the past and likes. He eats around the vanilla frosting, she asks if he liked it, he tells her he’s disappointed that it wasn’t 100% chocolate, they then fight and he goes to Reddit to ask if he’s the asshole in this situation.
There’s been a lot of back and forth with some “celebrities” weighing in:
Authors Mark Harris and Roxanne Gay are on opposite sides of the fight.
It doesn’t really seem like he acted out. He expressed disappointment at something disappointing. He made a simple request at her asking and she ignored it. That’s annoying!

Author? Photographer? Influencer? Bria Celest thinks the girlfriend is inconsiderate
I am very glad y’all aren’t my friends ☝🏽

TV Writer Camilla Blackett thinks this is a case of misandry.
No red pill but if you reversed the genders everyone would be siding with the birthday girl, sorry! https://t.co/xdwlsq4SHT

… and that’s it, I can’t find any more celebs. So let’s ask the audience!

I can’t sympathize with a 34 year old man that cares about his birthday that much https://t.co/aYVEQhZUAf

They are both being childish, but to be fair, he was honest, and he did tell her what he wanted for his birthday. It wasn’t like he didn’t vocalize perfectly. https://t.co/5EzdgH7pEh

Adults who are this into the details of birthday celebrations are all red flag weirdos. And there are way more in the replies than I expected. https://t.co/UEDidixLps
