Birthdays are the perfect opportunity to show someone how much you care about and value them. We all have specific things we like, some are pretty explicit, but some others are a little harder to figure out, and those matter the most.

It is the worst feeling in the world when someone you care about deeply forgets about your birthday or doesn't honor a birthday tradition they are well aware of. You expect the closest people in your life to go above and beyond and invest themselves a little bit more in the things you love.

Some small gestures can be pretty meaningful so you don't always have to go crazy. It's easy not to mess it up when you truly love the person and pay attention to the small details in their life.

A Redditor who goes by the username u/Whole_Ferret9774 made a post on the r/AmItheAhole subReddit where he explained how he likes to have cherry cake on his birthday, but his wife decided to replace it with cheesecake and got mad when he still wanted to bake his favorite cake.

The Redditor got a lot of different reactions to his post, scroll down and check out the full Reddit post, and scroll a little further to read the comments from the original post.

Here's the original post by Reddit user u/Whole_Ferret9774:

OP told his wife what kind of cake he wanted on his birthday, but she still decided to get Cheesecake instead.

OP's wife hated the fact that her husband still wanted to bake his own cake.

OP modified the post to include his cherry cake recipe.

Here's how the Reddit community reacted to u/Whole_Ferret9774's post:

More cake for everyone! That's never something to get upset about.

Not everyone loves cheesecake, and OP's wife should respect his wish.

She should know by now what kind of cake he likes on his birthday.

OP wants to do the extra work, but she's still not okay with that.

OP's wife only wanted to make things easier on herself.

She simply wanted cheesecake on her husband's birthday.

OP's wife totally missed the point.

OP held no expectations, and handled the situation pretty well.

OP's wife made a bad call and should've let him do his thing.

OP needs to have a serious talk with his wife about this.

OP is being the adult in this situation, but his wife is refusing to be one.

Not everyone loves cheesecake.

The wife is being incredibly selfish and childish.

This user asked OP to share his recipe, and he did!

OP's wife is not a big fan of chocolate.

It's weird for an adult to be acting like this.

OP has every right to request a cake of his choice on his birthday. It's one of the few times you are allowed to be specific, especially if you have a birthday tradition that you love doing. If you enjoyed this story, make sure to check out similar content on our platform.
