I (M25) was with my fiance (F23) and one of our friends (M24) at a bar late night. We had the munchies and no other places in town were open. My fiance ordered some food and a drink. The friend and I did not order anything. My fiance left to use the restroom; while she was gone her food and drink came out. Her drink was a beer, which was canned.The bartender/server had opened the drink and set it down on a counter away about ten feet away from us, leaving it there for a few minutes, then picked it up and walked over to us setting it down in front of my fiance’s seat. She then then turned to walk away. My friend and I exchanged glances, thinking why would she leave the preopened drink there and then with us. I’ve worked as a bartender and I would never leave a girls drink open while she was away; I would have just left the can unopened.

It had also been sitting between a bunch of guys for a few minutes while she was off chatting with some dude at another side of the bar The only reason she reembered the drink in the first place was because one of the guys was asking who this drink was for. When she put it on the table in front of us, I asked the server if it was customary to preopen drinks and just leave them between customers. She got extremely upset and began rolling her eyes while asking her what we were accusing her of. I told her I was just curious as Im aware of the dont leave your drink unattended rule and I would never do that as a bartender. I then asked her to replace the drink and the server became furious. My fiance had a previous incident regarding drink tampering and I had bells ringing in my mind. It eventually turned into a full blown argument.

My fiance came back from the bathroom to find us arguing, while being extremely confused. The bartender was super rude to her as well which set me off further. We then got kicked out of the bar for causing a commotion.

AITA for demanding another drink?
