I was grocery shopping with my girlfriend and during checkout, this pregnant woman in front of us didn't have the cash to pay for her groceries. So without even consulting me, my girlfriend butts in and says "Don't worry, my boyfriend will pay for you." My girlfriend just looks at me like this is expected of me. I flatly rejected and said I wouldn't. It was an embarrassing scene.
Afterwards, she was pissed at me. She said I'm an asshole and if I have no empathy at all, and that she was pregnant. I told her that I don't care if she was pregnant or whatever, I did not want to do that. And she said she thought I was "better than that".
Am I the bad guy here? I didn't ask for any of this.
Hell no. Don't let your shit girlfriend guilt you into not paying for this woman's groceries. Pregnant or not, it's not your responsibility to pay for someone's screw-ups. Note how this does not make the pregnant lady a horrible person, or your girlfriend either. But, she (GF) really shouldn't have opened her mouth like that. inb4 incel
Her heart was in the right place, that's for true. But she shouldn't have spoken for you like that.
Jaxson Johnson
Your girlfriend is retarded, couldn't she do it herself? Don't overthink it. Preferably dump the bitch.
Charles Lopez
How much was it? You weren't in the wrong. If a person offers to help she should pay it herself. But if it was a small amount you could've paid and then talked to ur gf afterwards that it wasn't ok of her to do that
John Robinson
She wants you to be different from what you are Id let it/her go because she wont respect you for not being noble Because theres a good chance you wont rescur her if she needed it
Josiah Sullivan
You had every right to refuse. If she wanted to help, she could have paid. Maybe you could have told a white lie and said you wouldn't have enough or something, but flat out refusing takes some guts and I admire you for that.
Did you talk to her about how not cool it was for her to volunteer your assistance afterwards?
Isaiah Rivera
Why the fuck would the pregnant woman enter a store pick up everything she wanted to buy and when at the cashier claim to have no money. My bets are that she had the money all along but wanted someone else to pay. This is not her first time and your gf is a dumb bitch for not seeing that
Elijah Gonzalez
Your gf is 100% in the wrong.
But how much are we talking about? If we are talking about 1-2$ tops the lady didn't have then that makes you really petty. But again, your gf is 100% in the wrong for even putting you in that situation and if that was the case why couldn't she give her own money? Why was she looking at you?
Fuck her dude, literally and then figuratively.
Liam Adams
you absolute fucking pimp. good job. you stood you ground.
Eli Stewart
How much was it? Was it like poverty tier food or was there shit in there like ... dang I can't afford that, somebody is clearly baller.
Did she just forget her purse or something or was it a 'but... but... I don't have any munny' start of a tard breaking down?
Robert Sanchez
This is a load of shit and you know it
Xavier Morales
This isn’t normal, and being generous with someone’s else's money isn’t nice. What kind of delusion gf did you land?
Nolan Adams
Yes you dumb cunt
Oliver Barnes
Thats a shit test, OP you handled well. Say you don't pay for offspring that isn't yours. And that if anything you'd decide to, and not that if she just says "my boyfriend does that" expecting you to give in
Ayden Morales
Nah. But I know how to fix the situation. I actually need to get me some groceries too but I totally don't have any money. I am a super pregnant woman so how about you Paypal me some money so I can afford my shopping. Then show it to her.
Cooper Cruz
No, she put you on the spot in a ridiculous situation. There's nothing wrong with refusing to pay when you didn't even make the offer. That has nothing to do with 'empathy' or lack thereof, it's simply being in control of your own resources. I wouldn't be surprised if this was a sort of shit test that your gf thought up on the spot. In her mind, she was probably thinking "does my bf have the resources to provide for me when I'm pregnant with our child" or something.
So if you want to keep the relationship, my instinct would be that you should talk about the incident and say that she surprised you, first and foremost, and secondly that you would be happy to pay of your own volition if you knew the person. Maybe work in something like "if a family member needed some money, of course I'd pitch in". I could be completely wrong, but then again if I am, she's not the kind of person who can be trusted with money in a relationship.
>What kind of delusional gf did you land? > being generous with someone’s else's money That's par for the course with leftists, though.
Connor Gray
Someone has to be logical and responsible. Good job op.
Jack Reyes
>saying all that when all OP needs to say is if she steps out of line like that again she can go find another guy to try and pussywhip
Colton Price
That's literaly the most retarded thing i've read all day. That's literally the same thing as a homeless dude pickpocketing drop her while it's hot in your mind she obviously doesn't have a healthy concept about other's properties and she might literally be retarded to debated this with you after
Oliver Fisher
2 boys are a spit match made in heaven
Elijah Butler
Both of you are wrong. She shouldn’t have volunteered you in the first place, BUT once she did, you shouldn’t have made a big deal about it in front of the pregnant girl. You should’ve just paid for it and then once you were back in your car, you should’ve bitch slapped the fuck outta her for being out of line. Just my two cents.
Bentley Myers
How much was it? If it was like $5 I personally would have chipped in and just argued with her later about volunteering my money without asking me. If it was like a whole cart $80-100+ then fuck her. That’s absolutely stupid and she’s kind of a bitch for even suggesting you throw that down on a stranger just because she’s pregnant and stupid
David Sanders
You are so unbelievably pussy whipped it's unreal. I really can't believe this is a real story.
Tell your girlfriend to shut her dumb bitch mouth up, she'd probably respect you more. Stand up for yourself you pussy.
Aaron Lopez
autist
Colton Moore
if she didn't have cash how did she get to the point of checkout?
Gabriel Cruz
pregnant with a half-black baby probably, good job mate
Nolan Peterson
lol I would have told her to fuck off.
Jackson Flores
She just tagged along picking out food items while OP pays for them. That's why she expected him to pay for the other lady as well.
Jayden White
Depends on how solitary your country is. If its generally seen as deed to your people to have children then the others should support those who are doing it.
If your country is individualist enough to not support the family unit especially then that 2 for 1 bitch can pay her shit herself
Brayden Kelly
She could have been testing you to see if you were a beta provider. When women are looking to get married they love beta providers.
OP, do you earn lots of money? OP, do you work a prestigious profession?
I would talk it over with your girlfriend before you breakup with her. Not because you should be afraid to break up with her but because you should be curious to why she did this.
You did nothing wrong OP. Don't get bitched around by women. If you wish to have a successful relationship (paradoxically) learn to have less respect for women.
Daniel Perry
Should've tripped the pregnant lady and revealed the watermelon she actually had. Why does she have a kid but no money? Does she really think that highly of her genes?
Aaron Campbell
Sounds like the typical socialist.
Why are women always so good at spending other people's money? Go and work, if you want to spend bitch! It's 2019 honey.
Connor Turner
Lots of variables here >how much was it? >what race was she?
But yes, your gf is pretty retarded, if she's gonna do that shit why doesn't she use her own money. I personally would have just paid because I'm not letting a dumb bitch make me look like an asshole in public, but I would have made sure she never tried some dumb shit like that again.
Cameron Rivera
You are not the bad guy. I'm totally for charity, but your wife shouldn't decide for yourself.
Hudson Ramirez
You are not the bad guy for not wanting to pay for a strangers shopping. You are a bad guy for making your fiancé lose face in public. How much did her discomfort save you? You could have paid and exchanged numbers and maybe gotten your money back, and in any case you should have told your fiancé later that you were uncomfortable with her offer.
You did not protect your woman. That is probably the real issue here.
>OP posts about outlandish situation >never replies to anyone it’s bait you retards
Thomas Rodriguez
I don't see how the amount of money matters. 50 cents or 50 dollars, you don't volunteer other people's resources for them.
Charles Gonzalez
Dump the domineering cunt before she ruins your life. Crazy never gets better.
Carter Ortiz
Technically the money is yours, if she wanted to pay then it should be out of her pocket since you ain’t married but uhh maybe she might have let you railed her if you were a good samiritan today user. Pregnant is pretty serious, you might become a dad one day lol
Gabriel Powell
Why would you pay? It's her own fault that the woman is pregnant and your girlfriend has no right to waste your money like that.
Julian Parker
why didn't she paid it herself if she was that almighty and whole-hearted? fucking retarded bitch. OP has every right to refuse. imagine giving your hard earned money to some random pregnant bitch who can't even afford groceries. bet she spent all her checks on drugs and meth.
Leo Thomas
well yeah i would "protect my women" ONLY IF she's worthy. but OP's? It's a no from me
Samuel Miller
100% this. Everyone here in this thread who is saying things like: "Oh, she wanted you to do better" Or even "She was in the wrong" Is not fully understanding this situation. This is fully and completely a shit test. Nothing more. You stood your ground, this is exactly the right thing to do, good job. And handle it in exactly the same again the next time.
This bait isn't even funny at this point. For the love of god, I hope that OP doesn't take this shit seriously.
Jack Reyes
user, the OP was bait already..
Oliver Flores
I'm not sure Jow Forums is on that level of irony. If the thread was on Jow Forums then the OP would have been bait.
David Butler
Disregard females, amass material wealth.
Hudson Sanchez
Jow Forums has these kinds of threads all the time. It's always about a girl doing something crazy and the OP asking for everyone's opinion. Isn't it suspicious that OP never replied to the thread?
Easton Torres
Dumb girlfriend wanted to be seen as the "good person" at the expense of the boyfriend. She is a shallow virtue signaller. This is just narcissistic ego stroking. It is a false charity.
The girlfriend is immature and self-serving.
Op should get a new girl.
John Perez
no, your gf is just a whore for attention and being the hero and you're autistic for not realizing that was her real aim
Thomas Cooper
True. Literally some woman hating dude feeding bait. It’s like Russian all up in here instigating shit.
Adam Turner
Just to clarify, my advice is not bait, it is my honest take on the situation described by OP.
