Welcome back to another Reddit post that we'll be diving into today. This post is submitted onto the AITA thread per usual, and we're going to be taking a deep dive into all the information.

Usually, people share their stories here because they're looking to get some unbiased opinions or advice on how they acted in a certain situation. We like to look into the full post and also see all the different perspectives that people have in the comment section of the post.

So with this being said, we are diving into this post that was submitted by a girl who is asking if she's in the wrong for not paying her boyfriend back for a cake that she didn't want in the first place. Ultimately, she explains that she asked for one thing for her birthday, and despite mentioning it multiple times, her boyfriend came with a different cake instead.

So she wants to know if she's in the wrong for not paying her boyfriend back for the cake that he did get her after asking him to leave her place for not getting her the specific cake. So if you're interested in hearing more about what the post said and what happened, plus what people had to say in the comments, then keep on reading.

OP starts off by giving a bit of her perspective and why this may have upset her so much, but ultimately goes on to explain her birthday and what she asked for.

She says that she did mention it multiple times to him so that he knew what she wanted and made it clear that that's exactly what she wanted.

She says that her birthday rolls around and he actually didn't even get her the cake that she wanted and instead, he got her some other different cake.

People immediately came to the comments to let her know that she indeed was NTA and that she asked for one thing and he couldn't even deliver that.

People made it clear that he had to do little to no thinking and he still didn't get her what she asked for.

People understood her boyfriend wanting to et something different for her but if the Kindle didn't really make sense for her particular interests so it makes us feel like he didn't really consider anything he was getting her.

People started talking about the rest of the situation and how it seems that her boyfriend was actually being kind of inconsiderate towards her about the birthday gifts he got her.

This is another perspective that we also have to consider especially hearing how her boyfriend reacted to all of this instead of apologizing.

This comment says it all because we feel like this is something that's kind of common in the way that men react or think in comparison to women.

Here's an edit that the person added to the comment above that explains their perspective and how their comment must've upset some people.

People in the comments thought that OP was NTA and that her boyfriend was being pretty inconsiderate by not buying her the cake she'd been asking for the whole time. Ultimately we have to agree with them, but what do you think, and how would you react in this situation?
