I’m going to a charity gala and bought tickets for me and my wife. She wants to buy a dress for the gala and I said okay.

She then asked if she could buy a few dresses to try on and only return one, and texted me screenshots of four dresses, which cost about $280 each before tax. She said she wanted to order them in two different sizes.

I said fine, pick three dresses and order those. That seemed like a lot of $ to float on my card, and a weird way to shop, but whatever. She then asked, “at each store?” and got upset because she wants to order three dresses in two sizes at every store and have them delivered.

This seems silly to me. It would involve thousands of dollars (which I have, but still) tied up and tons of shipping costs. I told her to go to the mall like everyone else and asked her who shops this way. Her response (via text): “WOMEN SHOP THIS WAY!”

Am I the asshole here?
