AIBU to need clarification on this?

[Ninkaninus]

Will hold off for now on saying who I am in this scenario.

What would you take this comment by B to mean:

Going out for a drive on a lovely sunny day with a view to deciding what to do en route.

Person A ‘I’d like to go for a walk round a nice little town and then go have a cup of tea in a pub, like a Sunday roast but not.

Person B ‘Once you’ve seen one town you’ve seen them all.

(For context, person B generally does not like going out and doing stuff, doesn’t like people, doesn’t like noise and crowds, doesn’t like overstimulation, is an introvert)

Would you take person B’s comment to mean, ‘I don’t want to walk round a town and then go to the pub’

Or would you take it to mean the person is just making conversation, it’s a neutral comment, they don’t mind walking around a town and then going to the pub.

OP you don't need to dance around it, we know you are person A.

I’ll explain later why I’m shaken up.

Lol okay.

Especially given the context, I would assume B doesn't want to do it, but will probably go along with it because A does. But I would think it very odd if the conversation ended there without more discussion of the rest of the plan.

I’m not het up about the conversation itself. I’m sorry for holding out, not trying to be a drama llama, just want a few more answers and then I will explain.

OP, I think if you just spit out what the actual problem/situation is you’ll get more useful opinions than a guessing game on a couple of ambiguous phrases.

Tell us now what happened next! Because without context this just seems like a normal conversation, and it’s a bit strange that you’re so worked up about it.

How many more answers do you want before you elaborate? It all seems fine at the moment, so what happened?

Oh for goodness sake, you’ve had a few answers. Most people are saying that they’d take it that B didn’t want to go for a walk.

You're loving all the drama aren't you op? Seriously get a life

Funny that people are picking up on the cup of tea thing, i can see that it doesn’t really make sense although it does in context of the person who said it. I should have left that out as it’s not relevant, I was just trying to post the conversation exactly as it went.

It doesnt make sense in any context. A cup of tea is not like a sunday roast. Never mind 'like a sunday roast but not'.

OP you are coming across as a drama llama. By the 'I'll post more soon'

It's the equivalent of a Facebook post saying 'ugh am fuming', people asking what's wrong and then replying 'cant really talk about it'.

It comes across as attention seeking.

I would think B is going to be a misery guts all day so if I was driving I'd turn the car around, drop them back home and go out on my own.

If you were in a same car, why wouldn't you just ask a follow-up question: what do you mean ? 🙄

Yawn.

The only way to tell what person B meant is to ask them. So, are you happy to go to a pub but don't really fancy a walk? Easy enough I would have thought. What's the context to the drama here?

So A wants to wander round wherever they are going before going to the pub?

B would rather just go to the pub.

Good lord - look B does not want to go to town and have tea for lunch or whatever

They have not added ‘I want to stay home and murder kittens’ or anything so not sure what the drama is

B is a fun sponge. They don't want to go. But don't really want to suggest anything else they'd enjoy.

God if you’re as difficult to communicate with as this thread shows then I can see where the other person is coming from.

Chill out ffs.

Unless B is a ghost 👻

B's not excited about walking round a random town. To be honest, unless you know that there will be something interesting to look at, I wouldn't be excited either. Most town high streets are just variations on the same set of shops anyway.

It wasn't clear what B meant so would have made sense to clarify. Either party could have done that at any time presumably before the huge row that followed but you're not disclosing because you want to have support for your perspective

Perhaps OP is B, and A reacted badly to her comment.

Person A sounds over enthusiastic while person B sounds like they are not really interested in walking round anywhere but don't want to upset person A by saying "that sounds boring as hell stop trying to make it sound fun". Person B is probably trying to keep person A happy by going out when in fact they would rather stay at home.

B means they don’t want to wander round town and have a cup of tea in a pub.

I would take B's comments about towns literally. They don't want to walk around a small town (as many are very similar). They perhaps want to do something different, maybe more interesting (but don't know what yet).

Person A's comment about the cup of tea and being like a roast dinner but not is one of the weirdest things I've read on MN ever.

They sound very well suited to each other.
