A birthday vacation is supposed to be fun, but one woman is leaving her husband home after repeated blow-ups between him and her friends.
The Fallout
In a January 4 Reddit post on the Am I The A—— forum, the woman said her husband has argued with four different friends over the past two years.

She told him he should skip the trip if he can’t stay polite.
