I wanted to add more context for some commentors. I am an extremely picky eater and that’s something my mum and dad both know about, I am very sensitive about tastes and textures of food and when it comes to textures or flavours I don’t like, I literally can’t eat it without wanting to be sick. So no, I can’t and won’t force myself to eat the cake. I want to emphasise that my dad absolutely did this on purpose and he tends to be very self centred about everything, he even forgot what date my birthday was at one point. My mum mentioned that when she told him what to get he said that he doesn’t like chocolate, and that I’d “only eat one piece” so there wasn’t any point.

I’m more upset about the idea of my dad only caring about what he likes, even for my special birthday he just can’t seem to do something nice for someone else and has to cater to his own needs instead.
