If you’re currently in a relationship, there would be times where your partner would either foot the bill whenever you buy stuff or eat out or split the expenses equally among the two of you.
However, there are some who have the misfortune of dating extremely stingy individuals, such as the case of this woman who ranted about how her boyfriend made her pay for certain personal items.
Made to pay for condoms and birth control pills by BF
Taking to the online platform Dcard to share her frustration, the woman said she and her boyfriend were still students and agreed to split the expenses among themselves.
However, when it came to condoms and birth control pills, the tune changed drastically.
When it comes to buying condoms, my boyfriend always implies that I should pay for it, which makes me feel very frustrated.
“I’ve also taken birth control pills for several months before as well as emergency contraception once, all of which I paid with my own money,” she wrote.
The woman also claimed that her boyfriend never once offered to pay for the condoms or birth control pills, adding that she was too embarrassed to ask him to share the costs.
She then asked netizens on Dcard to advise her on whether she should confront her boyfriend and make him bear a portion of the costs.
Netizens weigh in
In the comment section, netizens gave various advice on what the woman should do regarding her boyfriend’s miserly behavior.
‘Stop being intimate with him and you won’t have such troubles anymore. If he wants (to pay) make him do so for the condoms and birth control pills.’
‘Quickly break up with him! These kind of men only take advantage of others.’
‘Be extremely calculative with him. Split the costs of the medicine and everything you both used from now on. This includes every mouthful of food and drink he takes from you.’
