    Now, his family is pressuring me to pay for his accommodations and flight back home because he has no money. They seem to think I owe him something for his outburst, but I can't shake the feeling that I made the right decision for my own well-being.

    Am I the for leaving him behind to figure it out on his own? EDIT: I forgot to mention that I paid for our tickets and hotel room because he couldn't afford it but wanted to travel hence why he also couldn't get home.

    I have a hard rule: my man doesn't have to support and pay for me. (I can do that myself.) However, he HAS to be able to support and pay for himself.

    Stabby Boo 15h ago Darling, you've set him free in the land of beautiful models! Surely he can select his perfect girl as easily as picking the ripest fruit at a supermarket! His dream life is worth so much more than a silly old plane ticket! Lol, NTA.

    Apprehensive St... • 18h ago Wait what? He's fat, bald, and can't afford a $79 Spirit Airlines flight from Ft. Lauderdale to Burbank (IYKYK), and has the audacity to criticize YOU?

    North-Question-... • 20h ago Tell his family maybe if he wasn't paying for internet. he could have afforded his ticket home. His disgusting comments to her make me believe you did the right thing by dumpling him in Miami!
