A woman who is 32 years old was having a bad time with her boyfriend who is 39 years old. He would “forget” his credit card every time they went out to dinner with his two young children, leaving her to pay the price. She was sick of being used like this for months.
The woman went on Reddit to tell her story and ask other users for help. She said that the kids of her boyfriend loved going to restaurants and that they did it about once a week. But every time they did, her boyfriend would say he forgot his cash, leaving her to pay for everyone.
As the months went by, the woman started to feel like she was being ripped off. At first, she didn’t mind paying. Though she told her boyfriend to remember to bring his wallet before they went to dinner, he just laughed it off.
The woman had had enough one night. Even though she told her man to bring his wallet, he said he forgot again when they got to the restaurant. Because she didn’t want to pay for everyone again, the woman left the place.
His kids’ needs weren’t taken into account, and her boyfriend was mad at her for that. He called her greedy. That being said, the woman thought she had been patient enough and that her boyfriend should take responsibility for what he had done.
The majority of people on Reddit agreed with the woman that her boyfriend was being unfaithful. Some people even said he did it on purpose because he knew she would always pay.
There are questions about how their relationship works and whether the woman should have handled the case differently. Was she right to stand her ground and refuse to pay? Should she have paid for everyone again and then talked to her boyfriend about it?
