I’m female, A couple weeks ago I asked if I’d be the a bad gf if I confronted my boyfriend on the fact he didn’t get me a birthday gift. To summarize his Dad is currently in the ICU so I understand why \he wouldn’t get me anything but because he skipped out on last years birthday and Christmas after I got him the gifts he asked for. I wondered if it would be appropriate to lay out my issues with his considering the family emergency he was having.
The comments I got were typical stuff about how he’s using me for money, those are a lot of red flags and I’m getting gaslighted, and how I need to leave him. So you know what I did, I did NOT take their advice and instead spoke up to him about how I was feeling taken advantage of and in the opposite of how things work. he immediately took full responsibility and said as soon as the hospital situation was resolved he’d make up for all those gifts he didn’t get me. he wasn’t being malicious he’s just a busy person who didn’t realize how he was making me feel.
Yes, our relationship had an issue, but guess what, leaving at the first disagreement does not a relationship make. F all internet comments, they legit have no understanding of handling stuff like adults.
Here are what netizens think:
- Hey it’s called the internet, not your personal therapist, what did you expect? A PHD guy spending his time with a nobody like you for free?
- People seeking love advice on internet normally uses it as a place to vent. not find answers for ur relationship.
