The Awkward Dinner Invitation

  • 🍽️ A 21-year-old pescatarian woman was invited to her boyfriend's dad's house for dinner, only to find there was nothing she could eat.
  • 🍕 Despite her boyfriend being in charge of making pizzas, he made a combination pizza, and she was offered only a tiny cup of waffle fries.
  • 😔 She felt hungry, awkward, and uncomfortable, questioning if she was overreacting to being left out while others ate.

Community Reactions and Update

  • 💬 Commenters debated whether the boyfriend was thoughtless or if the OP should have brought her own food.
  • 💡 The OP later clarified that it was a frozen pizza and she hadn't known they were going to his dad's, admitting she should have been more prepared.
  • 🗣️ She acknowledged her shyness made it difficult to speak up in the moment but learned a lesson about being more prepared.

A Husband's Bizarre Experience

  • 🤯 A man describes his wife's increasingly strange behavior, including daily silent greetings, brown bag lunches, and a repeated phrase: "It's cold out there. Better hogy down."
  • ❓ He suspected gaslighting or a prank, especially after she denied any unusual behavior and claimed he was being "crazy."
  • 🏥 The situation escalated, leading to him being hospitalized where doctors suspected a manic state or underlying schizophrenia triggered by misusing medication.

Medication Misuse and Diagnosis

  • 💊 The OP discovered he had accidentally taken his wife's old prescription for Cerakquil instead of Benadryl, leading to his erratic behavior and delusions.
  • 👨‍⚕️ Doctors are investigating the cause, with a possible link to his grandfather's history of delusions and schizophrenia.
  • ❤️ His wife, though frightened, is supporting him through the diagnosis and treatment process.
