Atleast read it first lil bro 😭🙏

you boutta eat this HAYND

I don't want to call you TA because I understand you really tried. But the way you describe yourself is in line with what the girls said about you - that you usually inhale more than your fair share of food. In fact, even in this situation you had more than your fair share. Not everyone had one and you took two.
In the future, considering how much shame you feel about your overindulgence with food, maybe make sure to only take your fair share. You took one, that's it. If you really enjoyed it, compliment the person who made it. But that's it, once you've taken your one portion, the relationship with that food is done. There is no need to keep track of the plate because there are no more servings for you.
Those servings are for other people and none of your business. Enjoy and appreciate the one serving you have.

I don't think you're TA here but I think your self-awareness might need tweaking. If Emily is sayin that you've always been like that, I'm not sure that you're seeing yourself in the same light as everyone else.

Regarding "the last" of something like that and you've already hand one, it is good manners to ask the host if everyone has had one or "do you mind if I get the last cookie?". This is what I have been taught to do but I'm unsure about how widespread it is.

So I think more than focusing on the cookie issue, maybe step back and look at your behavior as a whole with this group. A question I have is, do you just eat and not compliment or thank the Emily? Something is telling me that Emily has been rubbed the wrong way by you since she agreed with Lisa's point of view.

So a couple days ago my girl and I were celebrating and she told me she made me chocolates as a gift. She was super excited about it, saying she spent hours on them. She works a little waitress job so she doesn't have a ton of money so I didn't mind her cheaping out a bit compared to what I got her. I thought it was sweet that she tried. I didn't even know she knew how to make sweets and stuff because she always says she can barely cook.

Anyway, I asked her how she learned how to make it and it turns out she just melted pre-made chocolate and poured it into molds. She didn't even make any of the fillings herself either, she got store bought caramel and fruit spread and stuff. Literally all of it was premade. She barely put in any effort at all and then she was all proud of herself. Usually I try to let things go because she's so sensitive to criticism but it just really irritated me that she tricked me like that, so I called her out on lying about it.

She got upset and said she did make them because she "put in so much effort". Halfway through arguing with me about if it's ok to lie to me or not she just starts texting someone and saying she doesn't want to argue any more.

She ended up getting her sister to come pick her up and she's been hanging out with her instead of me for the past two days. Her sister called me a dick on her way out too, which kinda makes me think my girl lied to her also about "making" them otherwise I don't know why she'd be mad at me. At first I was really sure that I was right, but maybe I need to be more forgiving of it? Like at the end of the day, I know she's not a great cook so maybe I should've expected it not to actually be from scratch. She's usually really sweet and texts me a lot but she hasn't been talking to me much the past couple days so I'm starting to feel like maybe I overreacted.

TL;DR: She claimed she made me chocolates when she just melted pre-made stuff and assembled them. I confronted her, her sister called me a dick, and now I’m questioning if I overreacted.

Edit for clarity: you guys are really upset about the way I talk and I just wanted to address it. She knows I call her my girl, she calls me her dude, she calls it a little waitress job too because it's basically just a side gig. How I talk is not really the problem at all and I think it's strange you all are so focused on it.

Anyway, some others said my age and what I got her matters so I'm 32 and I got her some old figurines she collects.

Also, just to clarify, you guys seem to think she put a lot more effort into this than it sounded like she did from her explanation. I'm seeing people talking about thermometers and how hard it is to make chocolate melt but she literally only used the microwave to melt it and she doesn't even own a kitchen thermometer so I doubt she used one. Maybe everyone just isn't understanding when I say she's got really little experience cooking and didn't seem to put much effort into these. She literally just melted it in the microwave, poured it into molds, and then put stuff she bought inside of it. That doesn't even sound like what you guys are saying "homemade" chocolates are done like. Some people have said I should make my own to see how hard it is and I think I might because what you're all describing actually sounds hard, unlike what she did with the microwave and everything.
