When it comes to Reddit posts there are always so many different opinions and perspectives that get left on those posts. That's part of the reason that we love looking into these posts and overall just giving you insight into the situations so that you can take a look into what your opinion might be on the situation.
So with this being said, we are diving into a situation that was posted by someone who wants to know if they are in the wrong for leaving their group event and making a scene. They had a reservation for 6 people but when someone's boyfriend randomly shows up, that puts them as a party of 7.
Instead of them asking the boyfriend to leave they asked OP to leave instead. They later give us some more insight into the situation and whether or not they were in the wrong because of them being the only single person there.
This means that the reasoning might be that everyone was a couple except OP and that might be why they were asked to leave instead. However, it's rude to ask someone to leave a group event like that especially if they showed up on time and were part of the original group.
Let's look into the situation and see what people had to say.
OP's post explains things pretty well so we can understand what the situation is here.
davidmcmann2This is where they explain that the reservation wasn't able to be filled because of the extra person.
davidmcmann2This is where they explain that the person took it upon themselves to tell OP to leave.
davidmcmann2It seems to have made everyone feel a bit awkward though.
davidmcmann2This is when some people reached out and said they felt bad for what was going on.
davidmcmann2OP wants to know if they are wrong for how they reacted even though the situation seemed to be awkward.
davidmcmann2Let's see what everyone thought the answer to this was.
davidmcmann2Here's the TLDR for everyone who didn't want to read the whole thing.
davidmcmann2Then there were a few edits added to explain the situation in depth and what's going on.
davidmcmann2OP kept it coming with updates to let us know how things are going.
davidmcmann2Some people did end up apologizing to OP though for the situation.
davidmcmann2I would have honestly taken it personally as well though.
davidmcmann2OP did us a favor by answering ALL of the questions.
davidmcmann2They were concerned about the awkward silence.
davidmcmann2OP obviously didn't time the silence but said it was still awkward.
davidmcmann2It turns out thst everyone was upset that OP even posted this though.
davidmcmann2They also addressed the "group leader" concern.
davidmcmann2This is true though sometimes in friend groups so we get it.
davidmcmann2OP was the one that walked out after being told they should leave.
davidmcmann2Some people still felt like OP shouldn't have called her names though.
davidmcmann2OP explains their mindset in the situation and how they wanted to just walk away.
davidmcmann2This is when people came to the comments to let OP know they weren't in the wrong but need new friends.
im_a_human_i_swearThis is exactly how most of us feel.
shitsenoritaI would have done the same too - with the language. Seems like crappy friends.
omegaxx19We have to agree with this.
denana24I wouldn't consider them friends either honestly.
Outrageous-Ad-9069OP came back for some advice and a few people delivered.
davidmcmann2We can all agree that they are not your friends.
xInsomniCatxI would've called them out worse than OP did.
AntiKuroYep this is a mental note to take.
imakesawdustThe 7th person should have just left in this situation since they caused the issue.
MrWO7BondThis is exactly what we are all thinking too.
Top-Bar3863Yep this is the best way to approach the situation because the 7th person wasn't on the reservation.
IAmHerdingCatzSo many people had tons to say about this situation because it's clear OP wasn't necessarily wrong and the 7th person should have left. However, it's pretty clear that these people aren't really OP's friends if they reacted this way.
