Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

No, we gotta get that back for you.

Speaking of dressing up, this first one is coming from Am I the Asshole?

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

It is eight days old.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

Titled, Am I the Asshole for not quieting down at a renaissance fair and walking away after my boyfriend sided with a stranger?

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

I, 23 female, went to a renaissance fair with my boyfriend, 26 male, and my sister.

My sister and I go to events like this regularly, but it was my boyfriend's first time.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

At these events, people dress up, interact with performers, and cheer loudly during shows.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

I was acting how I normally do, engaging with the environment and cheering during the performances.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

During a joust, I was cheering along with the crowd.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

Nothing inappropriate, just typical cheering.

A man sitting in front of me turned around and said I was scaring his child and asked me to stop.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

Before I could respond, my boyfriend told me I should, quote, quiet down a little.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

That upset me, especially since the event itself encourages loud crowd participation.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

Another person nearby even commented that the man was out of line.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

I felt embarrassed and unsupported, so I got up and walked away to calm down.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

My sister came with me.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

We had already planned to split up after the joust, so I didn't think it was a big deal to take some space.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

A few hours later, my boyfriend found us and was upset, saying I had abandoned him at an unfamiliar event.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

He also said that if a child is scared, people should adjust their behavior regardless of the setting.

Two Hot Takes
266: Overwhelmed!

No, you should remove your child.
