As the waiters were bringing more drinks and more appetizers, the grandma\u2019s neighbor raised a toast in which he highlighted OP\u2019s generosity in covering the expenses. This set the stage for an unforeseen chain of events. OP wasn\u2019t happy he was expected to cover the bill for that many people without even be consulted about it in advance.<\/p>\n<p>According to his calculations, the bill was around $4,000 until that point, and counting. Realizing his family was trying to take advantage of him, OP decided to leave the place. He left $100 on the table and said, \u201cI\u2019m not paying for dinner,\u201d as he stormed off. His phone wouldn\u2019t stop ringing. He received numerous messages, mainly from his mother, but he decided to turn the phone off and retire for the night. The following day he left the country without saying goodbye. Despite recognizing his less-than-ideal handling of the situation, OP felt devastated that his family wanted to take advantage of him and his generosity in such a sneaky way. \u201cI know I\u2019m nta with the dinner but more concerned about my reaction [sic],\u201d he wrote. Following his mother\u2019s persistent pleas to call her, he decided to talk to her and apologize for storming out of the restaurant in such a manner, offering an olive branch. Sadly, he was met with accusations of being selfish, greedy, and disrespectful.<\/p>\n<p>This came as a shock to OP who showed extensive kindness to his family over the years. Among the rest, he provided his mom with two cars, a bathroom remodel, a roof replacement, new appliances, and on top of that, he paid in full for numerous family vacations. The accusations angered OP to the extent that he decided to put an end to any assistance for those who failed to appreciate it by taking drastic measures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At that point, those who were present at the upscale restaurant had already ordered pricey steaks, which cost from $80 to $250 per person.
