What happens when you pair a working lady who financially abuses her partner with a stay-at-home dad who has a spending problem?
The answer is that this relationship has more red flags than a Woody Allen movie. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Ameliaroselia, who shared her story of discovering that her boyfriend, the father of her kid, stole thousands of dollars from her emergency safe over the course of a year.
Now before everyone goes on to blame him entirely for the situation at hand, there's some nuance here. The Redditor admits that her boyfriend had expressed a desire to work more, a desire that she rejected for selfish reasons (wanting to spend more family time together). He also had a history of spending money irresponsibly, but her way of handling that compulsion was to make him run even the smallest of purchases by her before buying anything. We are in no way excusing stealing from your partner; what this guy did was obviously extremely messed up. Still, the financial abuse here cannot be excused either. In short, as many of the comments on Reddit suggest, they both suck.
