A woman had been dating her boyfriend for several months when she noticed a troubling pattern every time they went out to eat. Eventually, she grew frustrated and decided to take action.
The 32-year-old woman had been in a relationship with her 39-year-old boyfriend, who had two young children, for nine months. Their relationship hit a rocky patch when they had a major argument over something he had been repeatedly doing.
Seeking advice, the woman turned to Reddit to ask if she had overreacted in the situation. Netizens were quick to share their thoughts, many siding with her.
The issue arose because her boyfriend would frequently “forget” his wallet whenever they went out to eat. Since his children loved dining out, they made it a weekly ritual. But each time, without fail, he would realize he didn’t have his card, leaving the woman to cover the entire bill.
At first, the woman didn’t mind paying, but after a while, it became a financial burden, especially as it had happened multiple times within a single month, leaving her struggling to keep up.
