A WOMAN’s trip to the Cheesecake Factory proved to be anything but sweet after her boyfriend erupted at her.
She explained that he got angry at her after she flashed nearby patrons in the restaurant.
Redditor Technical-Steak6535 shared the dating disaster in a post.
She explained that they grabbed food at the Cheesecake Factory to celebrate their first anniversary.
“My boyfriend planned it as he knows how much I love the Cheesecake Factory. I REALLY love their cheesecake,” she said.
The date had been going as well until an elderly man at the next table scooted his chair out, tripping an approaching server.
“[He] stumbled and spilled hot coffee on me down my back,” she said.
“It was obviously burning and startled me.”
Instinctively, she screamed and pulled her shirt up to get the heat away from her skin.
Her boyfriend, to her shock, was furious by the situation.
“I’m pretty small-chested, so I don’t typically wear a bra, and obviously, I wasn’t thinking about that when something hot was running down my back, burning me,” she said.
“I basically flashed all those at the tables around us. Yes, I was embarrassed, but at the same time, it’s just boobs.
“I pulled my shirt back down right after realizing what happened, but it was up for about 15 seconds.
“The server apologized over and over, but it wasn’t their fault. It was all just an accident.”
Even though she was forgiving of the situation, her boyfriend was not.
“[He] wanted to leave, like immediately leave. He said that I was being overdramatic for the way I reacted in the situation, and maybe I was, but it did startle me really bad, and it did burn,” she said.
“He told me I had put on a show for everyone in the restaurant, especially since I screamed when it happened and that we needed to leave.”
Her boyfriend added that she should’ve felt “mortified.”
She managed to convince him to stay for the remainder of their date, but he remained unsettled.
“He kept saying that the men at tables near us were staring at me and probably thinking about me inappropriately, but I said it wasn’t my problem if they’re being gross,” she said.
“When we got in the car, he told me I ruined our anniversary for making him sit through that, and we should have just left. He said that he [couldn’t] believe I would choose a piece of cheesecake over his comfortability.
“We argued in the car the whole way home about it, and now we haven’t spoken at all about it.”
Viewers served her up a slice of relationship advice and some comforting words.
“Whipping off the affected clothes is honestly what you’re supposed to do when you get hot liquid on you,” said one commenter.
“You wanna get that s**t away from your skin ASAP; a few seconds can absolutely make the difference between a first and second or second and third-degree burn.
“Nobody tried to call the cops on you for indecent exposure, so clearly, everybody else understood that taking your shirt off wasn’t inappropriate in context.
“And frankly, after getting hot coffee spilled on you, you DESERVED some dang cheesecake! You earned that cheesecake!”
