my family does this thing every year where we go to this italian place near my parents house for my birthday. it's kind of our tradition and i look forward to it every year.
this time my sister shows up with a guy she's been seeing for like 6 weeks. i had never met him before. fine, whatever. except the entire dinner, and i mean the ENTIRE dinner, turned into everyone interrogating this guy. my mom, my dad, my aunt. asking about his job, his family, where he grew up, all of it.
at one point my uncle asked me how things were going with work and i started answering and my sister literally cut me off mid sentence to tell some story about her boyfriend. everyone laughed and just moved on. i sat there for a second like okay.
i was playing on my phone and chatting to go meet up with friends at a bar after, kind of wanted to make a night of it. instead i just asked the waiter to separate my bill, told everyone i wasn't feeling great and left.
my sister has been blowing up my phone since saying i embarrassed her in front of him and made it "weird." my mom said i should've just been happy she finally found someone good.
i just didn't want to sit there for another hour being invisible at my own birthday. AITA
