Hi everyone,

I wanted to know if I’m overreacting with my wedding cake fiasco. I got married one year ago and paid for a vanilla strawberries and Bavarian cream cake with floral decor.

On my wedding day, the cake did not have any berries. I was disappointed after and reached out to let them know and requested a refund for the berries. The vendor has you build the cake, so every detail like berries, floral, layers, comes additionally, so I figured reaching out to request a refund for just the berries was reasonable since we never receive them.

The vendor was nice and issued us a refund and also offered to redo the top layer of the cake for our one year, just call and remind them.

I was really pleased with this answer, and I reached out several times and waited about a week in between each outreach before trying again. Finally heard back from about two months of trying, and they said they would be happy to redo the topper cake as a promise.

I go to pick up the wedding toper cake and they tell me it’s exactly how it should’ve been on our wedding day. when I get home and open the box, it’s not decorated at all.

I reached out to the venue and thanked them for redoing the cake, and told them I was still disappointed because it wasn’t decorated. I told them we never got to truly experience the cake we ordered and paid for, that I wasn’t requesting any other compensation or redos, and wanted to let them know how I felt and to use my experience to prevent mistakes moving forward.

I said I have regrets now going with them because we will never have the complete cake we ordered with both berries and decorated.

They responded and said they’re “utterly disappointed “ with my response that despite their best efforts I’m still unhappy.
No accountability for the second mistake.

Am i being unreasonable for wanting the cake with berries and decor how it was supposed to be done? I was completely kind and professional with all outreaches.

I’m tempted to write them bad reviews which I’ve never done to a business before, and wanted to see if I’m being reasonable.

Thank you for the feedback.

Hi everyone,

Kind of an odd question to ask, but looking for some advice. My old neighbor who I’m still friendly with started joining my yoga classes. They’ve always been more.. uh,
liberal when it comes to body odor and cleanliness.

During every class, they blow their nose, extremely loud multiple times on the same used tissue, and you can visibly see the snot on their hands while they’re practicing. I can see other students being put off by this during class, as sometimes they’re doing this during meditation or savasana. she says she’s not sick just constantly has a runny nose.

I try not to be judgmental, but I can see it be distracting for the rest of the class. What bothers me the most is, they like to give me a hug after class. I literally cringe because I can feel the snot on their hands when they’re hugging me.

there’s probably nothing I can say about this without coming off as rude, but I figured I would write here and see if I’m overreacting? Do I just need to accept this? Or is there a way to politely address this without making her feel bad?
