Her Boyfriend Asked For A Key To Her Deceased Friend’s Apartment, Who He Barely Knew, And When She Said No, He Got Really Offended And Accused Her Of Not Trusting Him
Just a few weeks ago, this twenty-seven-year-old woman tragically lost her best friend of fifteen years, Aaron. He was only thirty-years-old.
And unfortunately, Aaron never got married or had any family. So, she was the one left with the responsibility of taking care of his belongings and his apartment after he passed.
“I keep the key with me to visit the apartment every weekend to check on it,” she said.
Anyway, her boyfriend eventually noticed that she always kept the key on her. Then, one day, he asked for a copy of the key totally out of the blue.
She was completely caught off guard and thought the request was really bizarre– especially since her boyfriend and Aaron did not even know each other that well.
In fact, she and her boyfriend have only been dating for six months– a mere fraction of the time she had known Aaron for.
So anyway, she asked why her boyfriend would even want a copy of the apartment key. But then, he apparently got really offended she would even ask that. Plus, her boyfriend even accused her of “gatekeeping Aaron’s memory”– which was, again, pretty suspicious.
In turn, she ended up just apologizing to her boyfriend but reiterating that Aaron’s apartment was her responsibility. After all, Aaron had a lot of valuable items in his apartment, and she did not want to risk anything going missing.
“And besides, what business could he possibly have there?” she asked herself.

Still, her boyfriend did not seem to understand why his request came off really weird at all. Instead, he just got even more offended and then accused her of implying that he was an untrustworthy person and thief.
At that point, though, she was pretty over the ridiculous argument and tried to make her boyfriend cut it out. Well, low and behold, he kept going on and on about how much she had hurt his feelings and showed “an incredible amount of distrust toward him.”
Then, even after her boyfriend eventually went home, he just continued berating her reaction to his request for a key.
And shockingly, he has now given her an ultimatum. In fact, he said that if she truly trusted him, she would get him a copy of the apartment key.
So, she has been left feeling pretty uneasy about the entire situation. She is not sure if refusing to give her boyfriend a key was the wrong thing to do or if her boyfriend asking for one in the first place was reason enough to be paranoid.
Why do you think her boyfriend would want a key to Aaron’s apartment if he barely knew him? How would you have reacted to the request if you had been in her shoes? What would you do in this situation?
