In a nine-month relationship, a woman faced a frustrating pattern: every time she went out to eat with her boyfriend and his children, he conveniently “forgot” his wallet, leaving her to foot the bill. This happened repeatedly, straining her finances and leaving her feeling exploited.
One evening, after reminding him to bring his wallet, he brushed it off. At the restaurant, his children ordered expensive meals, and true to form, he claimed he’d forgotten his wallet again. Fed up, she walked out, refusing to pay once more.
Her boyfriend accused her of selfishness, but she stood her ground, asserting it was unfair to expect her to always pay. “I’m not prepared to pay for him and his children each time we go on a date. I don’t feel it’s fair,” she emphasized.
Redditors supported her, seeing his behavior as manipulative. They agreed she deserved financial fairness and commended her for prioritizing her own well-being.
