We’ve all heard the saying, “Love is blind,” and I’m sure most of us have experienced it firsthand. Unfortunately, for me, I realized this too late.
When I first started dating my girlfriend, she was the most romantic, attentive, and generous person ever. She would always surprise me with thoughtful gifts and sweet gestures, and I truly felt like the luckiest guy in the world.
However, as our relationship progressed, I slowly started to notice a change in her behaviour. She became increasingly lazy and cheap, always expecting me to do the majority of the work and pick up the tab. I thought that maybe she was just going through a difficult time, so I kept quiet and continued to do what she asked.
Little did I know that it was only the beginning. Her laziness and cheapness quickly escalated, and soon enough I was doing everything for her. I would make all the plans, pick up her food, and even book her doctor’s appointments. It was like I was her personal assistant, and I was getting exhausted.
4 min walk also need book Grab ride?
But then came the final straw. One day, I asked her to accompany me to the store, which was only a 4-minute walk from our house. She flat out refused and told me to go by myself. I was so shocked that I couldn’t even respond. It was obvious that she was too lazy and cheap to make the short walk, so she expected me to book Grab for her.
That was the moment I realized that I was in an unhealthy relationship. I was tired of doing all the work and shouldering all the responsibility. I finally realized that I deserved better, and I decided to end things with her.
It’s been a few months since then, and I’m finally learning to appreciate the beauty of a healthy relationship. I’m no longer in a situation where my partner expects me to do all the work and foot all the bills.
I finally found a better person and it turns out to be one of her friends. She was furious but who cares… She treat me like dirt there is no reason for me to think or consider much about her feelings when she did the same to me.
