Tell me: Should I be insulted?<br><br><br><br>
I was over for dinner at Trevor's mom's place, and her boyfriend was there. He KNOWS I'm a strict veg*an.<br><br><br><br>
After dinner he had been doing some dishes, and called me in from the other room (while Trevor installed something on his mom's computer) in this exasperated voice (like: "You're so rude not to be in here helping, ungrateful child") to help with the dishes.<br><br><br><br>
I walk in, he picks up the pan SWIMMING in chicken fat and gristle, and goes: "HERE. Clean this!"<br><br><br><br>
I just sort of looked at it, and let out a squeaky: "uhhh."<br><br><br><br>
Him: "What? You don't want to touch it??"<br><br><br><br>
Me, not wanting to be rude and refuse to help, but very grossed out: "Uhh, well, I haven't in 3 years..."<br><br><br><br>
Him: (Rolls his eyes) "FINE. Here." Tries to hand me the chicken-fat-dripping foil from off of the pan.<br><br><br><br>
Me: "Uhhh."<br><br><br><br>
Him: "What, are you HINDU??" (This in front of the brother's girlfriend, who I'm sure has Hindu parents...)<br><br><br><br>
In the end he huffed and washed them and I offered to dry and put everything else away.<br><br><br><br>
BUt is it just me, or is that REALLY RUDE?<br><br><br><br>
Before TRev even foudn out about that he was getting totally fed up with him cutting me off in mid-sentence ALL NIGHT LONG.<br><br><br><br>
And as we were watching TV he walked in (3 different times) and turned the channel from what we were watching to what HE wanted to watch... (The third time, after we glared at him: "Oh don't worry, I'm just looking to see what else is on." -YEAH, we KNOW. And it's RUDE.)<br><br><br><br>
So, should I be insulted?? I think so. I think that was very rude of him, considering he KNOWS I'm a vegetarian. He's known for months. We even talked about it at dinner.<br><br><br><br>
I have decided not to have dinner with them again for a long while because of this recent behaviour, but I feel a bit mean about it. But I CAN't STAND being treated like that!!
