AITA for leaving a dinner date after he fed his dogs a better meal than us?
In the delicate dance of new love, where each step is a test of understanding and respect, one woman finds herself caught between appreciation and frustration.
She cherishes the moments shared with a man who has become a pleasant presence in her life, yet a simple request reveals a deeper tension beneath their budding connection.
Despite his awareness of her painful struggle with severe acid reflux, a condition that dictates every bite she takes, he overlooks the gravity of her d*etary needs.
This disregard, intentional or not, casts a shadow over their time together, challenging the foundation of empathy and care that every relationship deserves.

The original poster (OP) faced a significant conflict where their es**blished d*etary needs, known to their date, were completely disregarded when the date prepared a specific meal.
The OP acted in self-preservation by leaving when confronted with an unsafe food option, which led to the date having an intense emotional reaction, accusing the OP of showing their true colors and implying the OP was being jealous of his dogs.
The core question is whether the OP was ent*tled to leave a date immediately after being intentionally served food they medically cannot eat, or if this response const*tuted an overreaction that damaged a promising, nascent relationship due to the date's subsequent emotional fallout.
