Asking for money can sometimes be a thorny issue among friends and couples, as some may feel iffy about handing out their hard-earned cash to others.
A woman recently took to social media to share how her boyfriend of seven months decided to call it quits on their relationship simply because she dared to request RM5 from him to buy herself a drink.
M’sian woman asks BF to lend her RM5 for drinks
According to a report by Kosmo, the woman shared on Threads that she and her boyfriend were on their way home from Port Dickson after attending a friend’s wedding.
When they stopped to refuel the car, she got thirsty and asked her boyfriend whether he could lend her RM5 to buy a drink from a stall next to a petrol station as she didn’t have cash on her.
“When I asked him for the money, he immediately got angry and said I was troubling him. If he didn’t want to give, he could’ve said it nicely.
“At that moment, it turned into an argument and he said he didn’t want to continue the relationship. Because of RM5, I got dumped,” she lamented.
Reactions towards the woman’s post were mostly of outrage towards her boyfriend, with many slamming him for behaving so pettily over a minor issue.
They also urged the woman to see the breakup as a good thing as it provided her a way out to escape the toxic relationship.
‘If he can’t even tolerate giving RM5, how can you expect him to handle bigger things in the future? You should be grateful the relationship ended early,’ one wrote.
Another chimed in: ‘It’s okay, sis. It’s only been seven months of dating. At least you now see how stingy he is. I only realised this after getting married. Can you imagine being able to walk away now?’
