Redditor Asks If She's An A**hole For Refusing To Pay For BF's Dinner After He Messed Up Her Food Photos For Instagram

We all have hobbies that we enjoy. And although sometimes they may not make sense to others, it's not unreasonable to expect our loved ones to respect the things that mean a lot to us.

Recently, Reddit user u/CapitalMess100 shared a story in the AITA (Am I The A**hole?) subreddit about how her boyfriend definitely does not respect her hobby. The OP explained that she has an Instagram account dedicated to photos of food from local restaurants.

She says that when she goes out to eat, she likes to take a few snaps of the food as it comes out. Nothing too over the top, just a quick photo for her page.

Since money has been tight recently, the OP hasn't been able to go out as much with her "foodie" friends. So, the only opportunity she has to eat out is when she's on a rare date night with her boyfriend.

The OP's boyfriend hates it when she takes photos at the table, but she asked him to please allow her to enjoy her hobby without making it a big deal. And, since they alternate who pays for each date, she asked that on the nights she is paying that he allow her to take a photo of their appetizers and meals.

The Redditor's boyfriend hesitantly agreed, and when they went out for dinner recently, he let the OP take a photo of the appetizers without any issues. However, when the entrees came out, he purposely messed his plate up with a fork so that the OP couldn't take her photo.

He then reached over and messed up the OP's food as well, so she couldn't even get a picture of her own meal. The OP says she was so angry that she refused to pay for her BF's meal even though it was her turn.

Now the OP is wondering if she was being an a**hole. Keep scrolling to see how people reacted.
