I Wanted My Girlfriend To Pay Me Back After Dinner

[@emotional.support.goblin]

Holy cow I started singing along with you, best song EVER! I first heard it when I met my partner 17 years ago and he would start belting it at the top of his lungs when he was in a good mood lol 😂

[@demonkingt]

"i'll cover it" then calls him cheap for her having him split the bill. NTA if anything that's a red flag from her.

[@DaBaseBallZ]

Story 6:Mr.Facts,you make a good point with your opinion,but if the GF does go through with her interests WHILE DATING OP,then she's clearly in the wrong

[@screamoneo]

holy crap you have an AMAZING singing voice, even though you’re just doing a silly little bit from the actual song, that was awesome!

[@izae_lifestyle]

LOVED UR SINGING 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 it’s literally so good tho

[@NHH009]

I know exactly which song she's talking about befor it was mentioned. Its so good.

[@raydragerns3657]

Story 3: she's 19 so she doesn't understand yet that a LOT of people are going to insist she's the love of their life. Boyfriend being 24, it's unsurprising that he jumped into this new relationship as a distraction before he was ready, and now it's at someone else's expense. That's a maturity issue. My most recent ex left me over Thanksgiving, it's even more complicated because we're eachothers first loves and have 20 plus years of on again off again BS built up between us. I'm STAYING single, why? Not because i want to get back with her, she actually treated me pretty badly and we don't have the same values, but because no, I'm not over her. We can't talk more than an hour without yelling, I'm so angry and resentful and sad. If i brought that energy into a relationship it would be doomed before it began. Learn how to be by yourselves, people.

Story 3:BF's behaviour has more red flags than a Chinese parade

[@torihime]

I LOVE DaVinci's Notebook, they're a RIOT 😂

[@thormalakowsky]

Story 6: She's straight up telling you that she's going to cheat on you first chance she gets. I don't get what there is to think about.

[@andrewvelonis5940]

I had a somewhat similar experience with story 1. I helped out a client on a business matter. He owned a restaurant that was of a particular ethnic cuisine. I said I'd like to try it. He told me "Come on down to my place, I'll take care of you." I took that to mean he'd treat me to a free meal. I went there and he charged me full price. No biggie, but it was an unwelcome outcome. I didn't much like the food either.

[@codm22712]

Story 1 no op is not the a hole who ever asked to go out they pay she said she had is covered plus on top of those if op can pay she can pay yes it was her birthday but that’s not a excuse you be a bad person she’s not a child anyone disagree/have anything to add ?

[@steph8030593]

The bill was probably more then she thought or budgeted for hence the splitting the bill

[@wmdkitty]

He ASSUMED. He's TA.

[@macyroth8922]

​@@wmdkittyhe didn't though, she said she had it covered

[@andrewlanglois6362]

17:52 I watched Steven Universe!! I think one of Ruby's songs is similar!!

[@DaBaseBallZ]

Story 5:Pepole,social distancing,respect pepole's personal space

[@DaBaseBallZ]

Story 2:What?What is with this guy?Hunh?

[@Ch3rryT3a]

Story 3 sounds totally normal…She’s exploring and he should feel flattered she is so open about it and doesn’t have to hide her desires from him. Aldo, our brain isn’t fully developed until 25 so they have some more growing up to do regardless.

[@TheHylianDragonGirl]

I’m not sure it’s super normal though, just from one of the comments, it made her sound like she has an R-kink. The part where she talked about people breaking into her house and doing it with her, (forcibly I think) sounds a little… off. Edit: Oh, you said story 3! Sorry, I thought you meant story 6. Looked like you were talking about the girl in story 6.

[@Ch3rryT3a]

@@TheHylianDragonGirl ​​⁠oh no you’re correct I just mislabeled the story! I missed the rape part, yeah that might need to be looked into through therapy 😮

[@doll9340]

I hope she doesn't actually follow though with being raped. Maybe have the bf rp that with her but rape isn't something she should seek out and see if she can find the cause for why she "wants" that experience

[@TheHylianDragonGirl]

@@doll9340 For reals, therapy is definitely not gonna hurt, and may be the best course of action, at some point down the road.

[@TheHylianDragonGirl]

@@Ch3rryT3a For sure, poor gal.😥

[@DaBaseBallZ]

Story 4:😂😂😂😂😂

[@mrp1zz492]

No way! I was the first in my friend group to find the song! I was also in high school😅

[@dawnstone4424]

Okay-story 1 is weird. OP gf says “I have it covered” Then goes to a fancy place. OP had a budget. I get all that. But it was her birthday. So was he not planning on doing anything? I’m not saying he should have had to pay the bill but having to pay the whole thing on your birthday? Something is smelly.

[@josiegipson90]

If you can't afford something then you can't afford something. Period. Regardless of whether it's a birthday, Christmas, anniversary, etc etc. OP explained to her he had a budget. She then picks a very expensive restaurant knowing he was on a budget, even said she had it handled. If she didn't want to pay the whole bill on her birthday she should've picked a more reasonable activity. I hate the word entitled but her behavior was entitled.

[@krypto1976]

Exactly like he had his priorities straight, she had that whole thing planned from the jump. she knew it would put him on the spot if she waited till after dinner to say ok pay your half.

[@justinoverlock8652]

Story 1, I'm curious. He said he can afford X but never said what X was. Then gf says she's got it covered. I don't agree it was pretty clear what she meant. Does she have the whole meal covered or does she have everything after X is paid. cuz ya I'd be annoyed if on my birthday my bf was adamant about he can only afford let's say $40, and I reassure them that don't worry, if it's over that I got you. Then their meal comes out to be $38 and they hand me the bill id say what the crap.

[@justinoverlock8652]

Or was it like the budget was $40 and the meal was $40.07 and you want her to venmo $.07.

[@izaaklivestream6545]

Hey what happened to your thumbnail

[@Yellowbeing08]

Last story: WTH- OK I'M FINE WITH WANTING TO HAVE "FUN" WITH STRANGERS... BUT IMAGINING SOMEONE BREAKING INTO YOUR HOUSE AND R4PING YOU?? WTF IS WRONG WITH HER?? I'M A S/A VICTIM AND FIND IT SO DISGUSTING AND DESRESPECTFUL. SHAME ON HER FOR THAT.

[@lethalty6055]

Story 1: NTA! She said she had it covered, which meant that she would pay the whole thing! It's too clear to be a red flag! Story 2: He's probably at another city/town still doing this! But still, calming down on the conversation and veing loyal! Story 3: Yeah, no! He still has feelings for her! OP needs to contact his ex and breakup with him! Story 4: Always check your files before you send emails! Story 5: Some people are just like that! I know what it's like because I've flown about 8 times, but it was during COVID procedures! Story 6: I think OP needs to have a deep conversation with her about this! This sounds like she likes to have an open relationship, as well as being forced upon, and OP needs to talk to this along with his insecurities, and learn about this as a duo!

[@DaBaseBallZ]

Story 1:Bruh,"I have it covered" means you,yes,YOU AND ONLY YOU will pay 100% of whatever you're doing,NTA GF needs a dictionary

[@Neonsilver13]

Story 1: Where in the world would anyone think that "I have it covered" means we are splitting the bill. If someone tells me that he has it covered I expect that they intent to pay the full amount. Also OP made it very clear that an expensive restaurant was not in his budget. Also unless I misunderstood this, the GF in general expects OP to pay unless she has it covered which means she wants to split the bill. I would say that might be a red flag.

[@andrewvelonis5940]

In story 1 I thought she meant she had her half covered. He wanted her to pay for the whole meal?

[@wmdkitty]

Yeah, and now everybody is dumping on her for not paying for HIS meal.

[@wmdkitty]

S1: YTA. This should have been discussed prior to the date. When she said she "had it covered", she meant she had HER meal covered, and OP knew it. He's just trying to be a jerk now.

[@Monekyslayer445]

Again mainly facts being an idiot. Story 1 isn't him being an asshole. He said they can pay up st home/later. So what's the problem? He didn't say he'd just cover it
