He Refused To Give His Girlfriend His Jacket And Shoes On Their Date Because He Felt Like He Was Getting Taken Advantage of For Always Being Chivalrous
This 21-year-old guy has been with his girlfriend, who is 25, for about 9 months. And so far, their relationship has been great, and he thinks he treats his girlfriend very well.
“I’m a very chivalrous person– opening doors, walking by the road, giving her my jacket when she’s cold, taking her out on dates and such,” he explained.
But recently, he feels as though his girlfriend has been taking advantage of his kindness by intentionally leaving her jacket behind and wearing uncomfortable shoes.
In other words, whenever they go out, his girlfriend will get cold or uncomfortable. So, he’s forced to hand over his jacket and his shoes, leaving him cold and barefooted.
“I would have been carrying her instead, but I have back issues, and putting any form of pressure on my back is not advised,” he noted.
Not to mention, his girlfriend used to be diligent about bringing both a jacket and some ballet flats with her in case she needed to change her shoes.
So, he eventually started to get a bit fed up and asked her why she stopped bringing those items with her when they went out.
Well, his girlfriend claimed that she just couldn’t find her ballet flats and admitted to always forgetting her jacket.
This inspired him to buy his girlfriend a new pair of flats that he could keep in his car before they went out on a date again two days ago.

On the day of their date, it had also been raining in their area, and the temperature was a bit colder than usual. That’s why, before they left, he reminded his girlfriend numerous times to pack a jacket.
“And just as we were about to leave, I asked her one more time to pick a jacket, and she said she had it in the car,” he recalled.
But, once they actually went on their date and decided to take a walk at some point in the evening, his girlfriend pulled the same thing.
All of a sudden, she started complaining about being cold and her feet hurting from her heels. Then, she asked to take his jacket and shoes again.
According to him, it had rained a bit earlier on in their date, so the grass was muddy and wet– which is why he didn’t want to give up his own clothes. Instead, he asked his girlfriend to wait on a bench while he grabbed her jacket and flats from the car.
Yet, she started acting all hesitant and just insisted that she use his. He didn’t understand that since her jacket and shoes were supposed to be in the car, and he figured he’d get the items so they could both be comfortable.
Spoiler alert: it turned out that his girlfriend had never actually packed her jacket in his car.
“And I was obviously annoyed at this point, so I called her to come to the car and said that we’re going home,” he revealed.
This wound up making his girlfriend pretty mad, and she accused him of being petty for ending their date over a jacket.
However, he pointed out how that wasn’t the real issue– it was the fact that she kept lying to him about bringing a jacket.
“Yes, I would have been frustrated if it was a mistake again. But when I realized she did it on purpose, I refused to give in,” he vented.
So now, he’s unsure whether refusing to hand over his jacket and shoes for his girlfriend really made him a jerk or not.
Why do you think his girlfriend started taking advantage of his chivalrousness? Can you understand why he was angry? Was he in the wrong or not?
