- An anonymous man took to Reddit to criticize his girlfriend
- He reveals that he owes two months of rent
- The man said his girlfriend spent his money on Taylor Swift products
A boyfriend unleashed a vicious rant at his girlfriend after he paid her part of the rent and she spent cash on Taylor Swift merchandise instead of paying him back.
The anonymous man took to Reddit to ask people on the web for advice and wondered if he was “overreacting.”
He explained that his lover had changed jobs last month and was unemployed for more than two weeks.
Because of this, she did not have enough to pay for her living expenses and so her boyfriend covered them, with the expectation that she would cover the full amount next month.
However, when it came time to pay rent again, his unnamed girlfriend left him furious when she revealed that she once again didn’t have the funds, despite spending $100 on Taylor Swift-inspired clothing.

The anonymous man took to Reddit to ask people on the web for advice as she asked him if he was “overreacting.”
In a thread titled, Am I exaggerating?He lamented his girlfriend’s spending habits.
He explained: ‘A little context: at the beginning of last month my girlfriend changed jobs and was unemployed for about two and a half weeks.
‘During that time, we talked about how we would handle the mortgage and bills: I would cover her half in September ($600), as long as she could cover my half this month.
‘Instead of covering my half this month, you’re missing rent again. She gave me what she could, but now she owes me $800.’
Despite owing her lover a whopping $800, the anonymous woman decided to spend her time shopping online.
She spent $100 on the star’s merchandise and then excitedly showed her boyfriend what she bought.
Her shopping addiction sent the Reddit user into a rage as she explained that she felt like she constantly went out of her way for her.
He added: ‘Yesterday, she excitedly showed me her expensive new Taylor Swift product (~$100) and I just couldn’t keep it. Instead of getting angry at her, I stayed quiet and then tried to sleep. But I still feel slighted.
When it came time to pay rent again, his unnamed girlfriend left him furious when she revealed that she once again didn’t have the funds, despite spending $100 on Taylor products.
People online flocked to the comments section as they criticized his girlfriend for ‘taking advantage’ of him.
‘I’m out of $800, there’s really no room for luxuries at the moment. And yet, I think this situation would have been more pleasant: if she had asked me for it, I would have bought it myself and given it to her. Even if it meant having to make my own sacrifices.
‘It’s less about money and more about putting my partner before my own wants and needs. I feel like I don’t get that in return. I’m afraid I’ve started a pattern by offering “rent forgiveness” last month and I feel taken advantage of.
‘Am I justified? How would you handle this situation? I haven’t shared my feelings with my girlfriend yet, as I hope she has an idea, but I plan to talk about this at length with her when I get home today.
People online flocked to the comments section as they criticized his girlfriend for “taking advantage” of him.
One person said: ‘You are justified in the way you feel. She is taking advantage of you knowing that you will give in to her every desire.
Someone else wrote: ‘Eviction notice. Taylor’s version.
Another user added: ‘He owes you two months and he spent it wildly. This is her showing her true colors. I would let her know that her actions are making you reconsider what the future would be like with her and you don’t like it. You can do better.’
One user commented: “Every time he buys something, remind him that he still owes you rent money.”
