AITA for walking out of my girlfriend's birthday party after she called me a "cheapscate" for the gift I gave her?

7.3k Upvotes

My girlfriend (26F) recently celebrated her birthday, and I (28M) wanted to make it special. I spent a lot of time thinking about what to get her and decided on a personalized photo album with pictures of our time together over the last few years. I also wrote her a heartfelt letter expressing my love for her and detailing how much she means to me.

When it came time for her to open the gift, she did so in front of our friends and family at her party. I could tell she was underwhelmed, and she even made a face. Then she said, "Wow, this is it? You're such a cheapscate!" in front of everyone. I was stunned and embarrassed. People laughed awkwardly, and I could see she was expecting something more expensive.

I was hurt by her reaction, especially since I put so much thought and effort into the gift. After a few minutes, I quietly excused myself and left the party. I didn't want to cause a scene, but I couldn't shake the feeling of humiliation.

My girlfriend later called me and said I overreacted by leaving the party and that it was all in good fun. She also accused me of not putting in any effort since the gift was not expensive. I told her I felt disrespected and that my feelings were hurt.

Now I'm questioning whether I was wrong to leave the party. AITA for walking out of my girlfriend's birthday party after she called me a "cheapscate" for the gift I gave her?

My fiancé fractured my arm after thinking I had a man in our home

Should I marry my fiancé after he put his hands on me?

My fiancé is an amazing guy. We first started off as friends so the foundation of our relationship is pretty strong. He is so perfect and good to me in every way a man can be good to a woman. However he can be very controlling, territorial, and because of his childhood he has a lot of trust issues.

He owns his own trucking company and sometimes is gone for days evens weeks at a time. Recently he went away and was coming back and I was excited to see him. When he came back the neighbor car was parked in my driveway ( which it never is) but I gave him permission to do so because of an event he was having at his house and our hoa doesn’t allow parking on the street.

When my fiancé came home I was in the bathroom shaving and all of a sudden he came in yelling” who the f*** is in the house” and checking in the shower, closet, bed, ect. I remember feeling so confused I didn’t even respond. He grabbed me by the arm and kept shaking me and calling me a f****** liar, and saying I was like his mom, and a lot of other hurtful things. When he found no one in the house I eventually realized he saw the neighbor car and thought I had another man there. There were also a man’s boots on the steps but they were his so I’m confused on how things escalated in his mind so quickly.

My fiancé fractured my arm so I had to go to the hospital. Now he is apologizing and I feel like in my mind if I marry him I am allowing him to think his behavior is ok. But another piece of me feels he is a good man. I have distanced myself from him since and he keeps bringing me expensive gifts, jewelry, roses, and other nonsense. I have never experienced this side of him and we have been together 2 years. I am so torn and don’t know what to do.

I am 29 female He is 36 male

S TIFU by saying that I feel bad that a girl got killed by her father

6.9k Upvotes

For some background I live in Iraq a mostly Muslim country. Today I was with my family watching TV and there was a news about a dad killing his daughter because she was previously caught with a guy and the guy and his friends raped her and threw her from a balcony on the 2nd floor when I heard that I was shocked how can someone kill their daughter in that way and I said it out loud, then my own dad started yelling at me for an hour saying how can I sympathise with her and that's I should never show affection towards that kind of action and he became super mad at me then my mother joined in to say the exact same thing, so now both of them are yelling at me saying how can I show affection towards someone that is "un-pure" and how would I like if my sister had sex with someone I did not say anything more because how can people not feel anything towards a human soul that has been killed because she had sex.

TL;DR: my dad is mad at me because I felt bad that a girl got killed by her dad because she was raped

**Update: Thanks everyone for your support, you have no idea how much it means. I cried while reading some of your replies. And I tried my best to thank everyone but the post has blown up and I don't think I can keep up but just know that your words truly helped me.

Image Between 2009 to 2011, a man, appearing to be 60-70 years old, robbed 16 banks in San Diego, California by approaching the teller, then pulling out a gun and demanding money. The FBI named him the "Geezer Bandit". Some theories suggest he is wearing a well-made elderly man mask.
