This 20-year-old guy has been dating his girlfriend, who’s 19, for a while, but he’s only recently become concerned about their relationship. That’s because, out of the blue, she began getting quite close to a male coworker at her job.

“I have no issue with her having male friends in general,” he clarified, “But the way things have unfolded has made me uncomfortable.”

The issue first started when his girlfriend and her coworker decided to play Roblox, a video game, together. That was fine with him, but his girlfriend initially lied about the situation and claimed she was just playing with a female friend.

Then, the following day, she came clean and told him that it was actually her male coworker.

“We had a small argument about it, but we resolved it, and I didn’t think much of it after that,” he recalled.

A couple of days later, though, things got worse. After his girlfriend and her coworker both ended a night shift around 11:00 p.m., the pair decided to go on a late-night drive together. The drive even lasted a whopping four hours, too.

He made it clear that he definitely was not comfortable with that, and his girlfriend agreed that she wouldn’t do it ever again.

Yet, after two more weeks passed by, he caught his girlfriend on another late-night drive with that same coworker.

“I’ll admit I was kind of snooping on her location because I had a feeling something was off, and it turns out I was right,” he explained.

By the end of the drive, his girlfriend dropped her coworker off at his place before returning home. And when she walked in, he didn’t hesitate to confront her.

He immediately asked his girlfriend whether she was out driving with the guy again. Rather than being honest, she lied to his face and claimed she was driving alone.

“After some back and forth, I told her to stop lying, and she eventually admitted to driving with him,” he revealed.

His girlfriend tried to justify it by saying that she simply wanted to go out for a drive, and she swore that she didn’t have any feelings for her coworker. That’s why she didn’t view the situation as a big deal at all.

Now, he apparently doesn’t think that his girlfriend is actually cheating on him with this guy.

“But I feel that spending hours alone in a car with someone of the opposite gender late at night crosses a line when you’re in a relationship. The fact that she tried to hide it also makes it a lot worse,” he vented.

Nonetheless, given his girlfriend’s opposing perspective, he’s not sure if he has a right to be upset over this or not.

How would you feel if your partner was doing something like this? If his girlfriend feels the need to lie, might there be more to the story?
