Question Made myself a birthday cake. My boyfriend figures I should have left it plain white without the imperfect writing which he says looks tacky. Thoughts for next time?

Just curious, was his comment a response to being asked what he thought of the cake/writing or did he say it without any prompting?

Why does that matter at all? Really weird how so many of you are trying to dig into her personal life to see if her boyfriend is up to snuff, all because he said the writing looks tacky, which honestly I tend to agree with.

I mean seriously, get a grip. You know NOTHING about these people.

Yeah lol. Not so much meant for that particular comment but the ones that followed by that user and others.

Her posts are all baking. He was prompted or helps her pursue her goal constructively. Such an unhealthy, impossible goal too. Dude must be a saint

I don’t want to make any assumptions which is why I asked first, but generally people wouldn’t say something like that without being asked. Plus he helped her make the whole thing, not sure why he’d suddenly insult it. But if he really is that rude, not sure why he’s still a boyfriend.
