He asked Reddit’s “Am I the A******?” forum to weigh in. He and his wife made plans for his birthday. But when her childhood friend was in town from Germany, she jumped on the chance to see the friend even if it was on his birthday. The husband kept his plans but with a friend instead. When his wife found out, she was furious.

“Yesterday was my birthday,” he explained. “My wife and I had made reservations at this really nice Korean BBQ restaurant for dinner. My wife is four months pregnant. However, her friend wanted to hang out with her and had called her the night before my birthday. My wife said that this was a childhood friend of hers and that she really wanted to spend time with her.
“I reminded her that it’s my birthday, but she just dismissed it, saying my birthday comes every year but her friend will be leaving for Germany in a few weeks. I told her that she could go after my birthday as well, but she did not listen and just went to a sleepover at her friend’s place.”
The husband was pretty upset that his wife didn’t want to spend time with him, so he changed his plans.
“I got really mad at her and instead of waiting for her to return home to talk things out, I asked my friend if he would like to hang out with me,” the husband said. “He was fine with it, so we spent the day fishing, grilling, hiking, and went to the Korean BBQ for dinner. When she came home after spending time with her friend, she apologized to me, saying it was an unavoidable circumstance. I told her that it wasn’t a problem and that I [had] spent the day with my best friend.
“She got mad that I’d take him to the restaurant that we had booked for ourselves. I said that it was originally for us, but since she prioritized her friend over me, I took the person who prioritized me on my birthday. She said that I’m controlling and that I shouldn’t be deciding who she spends time with. Now she’s neither talking to me nor coming out of the room. I think I went too far by telling her whom she should be spending time with.”
People felt the wife was the one in the wrong here.
“Your wife is playing the victim here. She seems really immature and rude,” a user wrote.
“She cannot tell you whom to spend time with. She is controlled by her own definition,” another said.
“She’s being manipulative and trying to make you feel like you did something wrong,” someone commented.
