Now I’m feeling like I may be the *sshole.
No-one has said anything but I know there’s tension.”
Her husband had invited two friends; his BFF Matt, and Matt’s pregnant girlfriend, Jane.
She had a birthday barbecue, spending about $90 on food – Matt brought some burgers.
“While the guys cooked, I went swimming with all the kids in our pond.
Jane sat near the guys on her phone,” the poster shared.
“We spent a good 40+ extra minutes in the pond on our tubes,” the poster said.
“I wasn’t paying any attention to anything that was going on near the grill.”
Her husband, Matt, and Jane had all gone away when they arrived.
“Well, we get up to the grill and all the food is gone.
I tell him that everything is gone,” the Redditor shared.
OP asked their husband to ring Matt and ask what happened.
(Side note – how come they just drove off without saying bye to the host?)
“I’m pissed at this point.
Me and my son hadn’t eaten anything,” OP wrote.
“I tell Jane that her kids can but she can’t,” the Redditor said.
“I just shrugged my shoulders and walked away,” OP ended their post.

Who leaves a party with all the leftovers and then has the gall to return for more?!”
