His Girlfriend Accused Him Of Being Selfish For Not Wanting To Buy Her A Six Figure Car And He’s Asking The Internet If There’s Anything Wrong With This
A 24-year-old man is dating a woman 2 years older than him, and he works in a career where he makes nearly six figures every year after paying taxes.
On the side, he also has invested some money into cryptocurrency and stocks, so he’s doing quite well for himself.
When he was younger, he always promised himself that when he did well for himself he would purchase his dream car; a 2019 Nissan GT-R.
He was able to achieve that dream of his and now that’s the car that he drives.
As for his girlfriend, she currently drives a 2018 BMW M3 that he generously bought for her.
“The other day she suggested I should order her a new Tesla for Christmas,” he explained. “The one she wanted before I put work into my car was more than my car had cost.”
“Of course I’m not saying I don’t or won’t spend money on her but she drives a very nice car that I paid for (she pays the insurance and for the maintenance and upkeep) that is still a luxury car that drives well.”
“I argued with her that I wasn’t going to drop 6 figures on a car when I’m looking at buying us a house.”
“Yes even though we’re under the “dating” title we have extremely strong love for each other…she has my name tatted on her (not my idea) and while I love her and am always buying her what I think she’d like or told me she liked as gifts I just really think it’s financially irresponsible to buy a new car for no reason.”

His girlfriend accused him of being selfish and cheap because the car he purchased from himself cost more than the BMW he bought for her.
She then tried to spin this further and say there’s no way he loves her.
Meanwhile, he also has spent a lot of money on buying her designer shoes and clothes, and she previously seemed to appreciate the money he continuously spends on her.
He’s left wondering if it’s somehow wrong of him for wanting to spend the money he works hard for exactly how he wants to.
Here’s what the internet had to say.
“She’s displaying gloriously apple red flags that you should be paying attention to. The entitlement and financial irresponsibility on display here burns.”
“This is who she is. She’s showing you. Better listen or you are going to regret it down the road.”
“In what world is it ok to spend 1 years worth of salary for a present to someone who isn’t even your fiancée?”
“You say you two love each other then I think a good test of that love is to see her reaction to you not giving it to her.”
“She is in this for the material things she can get. You already bought her a nice car (that car ain’t cheap) but she wants more.”
“And she’s keeping score – (your car is more expensive than mine). It’s only going to get worse!”
“And why doesn’t she buy herself these expensive things?”
“Dude run. Seriously, or she’ll be wanting to upgrade the car yearly. And don’t get me started on when you have kids and she wants them in baby Hugo Boss etc and it’s destroyed in seconds.”
“If you make under $100k and don’t own your own home buying a $100k car (or any depreciating asset for that matter) is a really dumb financial move.”
“Find a financial planner to help you make the best choices for your future. Oh, and ditch the girlfriend, if she’s that entitled already it’s not going to get any better.”
“Any time someone you’re not married to claims you aren’t spending enough money on them is a major red flag.”
“Before you buy a house, cut her off because you will lose half of it in the divorce once you’re married and she’ll move on to someone else to leech off of.”
“…Before you invest in a house for you guys, reconsider the whole relationship. She’s entitled and ungrateful.”
“She isn’t owed anything with your money. Anything you buy her she should be grateful for. Tell her to put in the hard work herself and buy the car with her own money.”
