That’s where the situation hit the fan. Amber called her boyfriend to tell him she’d be going to the ER, and he flipped out on her.
He started by telling her he couldn’t stand the way she always runs to her parents for financial help and that’s she wrong for doing it. Then, he basically told her she should have “manned up and dealt with it like an adult.”
He ended the relationship because of it. So now Amber is turning to thousands of strangers to figure out if she was wrong for accepting her father’s help and going to the ER. You can read the original post on Reddit here.
Dear Amber,
I don’t know if daddy always rescues you and how much he pays your way. Maybe he bought you a lift ticket for Christmas and paid your gas credit card to drive you to the resort, but I guess it’s not relevant when you are injured, possibly seriously.
There’s a time to suck it up, and there’s a time to ask for help. You are not the jerk. Your boyfriend is the jerk. Send him and his controlling, mean attitude packing. Then, learn to balance your checkbook. Feel better—the end.
