Man dumbfounded by fiancee’s ‘entitled’ engagement dinner move: ‘That’s a big red flag’

A man was shocked when his fiancee tried to get him to pay for her friends’ meals.

He took to Reddit’s “Am I the A******? (AITA)” forum for advice. His fiancee invited him to dinner with her friends, who are notoriously judgmental. When the meal was over, her friends expected him to pay. But he refused. 

“I proposed to my fiancee last year,” he wrote. “Fiancee and I have a lot of different interests and friend groups. My group of friends are on the nerdy side and enjoy playing video games, watching movies and D&D. My fiancee’s group all come from wealthy families and are very girly. Fiancee and I do love each other, and plan on spending the rest of our lives together.”

 “I don’t mind hanging with her friends, but they can be very judgmental and make comments. Fiancee invited me to come out with her friends to celebrate and I did get dressed up. The one friend wanted to try a new fancy restaurant that had opened. Most of the food items were over $20 and I ordered a large appetizer as my main dish.”

But when it came time to pay the bill, the Reddit poster felt ambushed. 

“Fiancee ordered a salad and cocktail,” he explained. “Her friends ordered a bunch of drinks and expensive entrees. When it came time to pay the bill, her one friend looks at me and says Fiancee said you would be treating us out tonight. I gave Fiancee a look and told the waiter to split the entire check. I only paid for Fiancee and me.”

“Fiancee didn’t speak to me the entire ride back to our apartment. I did bring up what happened at the restaurant and Fiancee got defensive saying that I shouldn’t have made her look like a fool in front of her friends.”

“Your fiancee made herself look like a fool by promising something she had no right to promise. That’s a big red flag,” one person said. 

“She should have been upfront. Why do people feel so entitled to spend other people’s money,” another commented. 

“You should really think about if you want to spend the rest of your life with this woman,” someone added.
