Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. We never want to feel like a blight to someone's life, especially when we feel like we're sacrificing our own to help them. There's a sense of betrayal when your efforts to help someone else go unnoticed or belittled. It's demeaning, and makes one feel unappreciated, unseen, and unnoticed. It's a great gift of love and a sacrifice to help someone with their growing business. We all know that no one formed a successful business all by themselves, and this type of commitment to helping someone takes a lot out of a person.
This brings us to the Reddit thread. In this story, the original poster (OP) is a woman who's fed up with her partner's treatment of her. She already has a successful job, and doesn't mind helping her boyfriend build his business. A selfless and honorable deed, he reacts to her efforts with disrespect. Not only does he choose his daughter to be his plus one in activities for their town, but he diminishes her professional decisions. She puts her foot down.
