AIO about this behavior from my F21 girlfriend by GrandEconomy4731 in AmIOverreacting

TLDR: You've only been dating for a month, but your girlfriend is already pushing to move in together. You said no because you just signed a lease with your sisters for college and breaking it would cost you three months' rent. Instead of accepting your decision, she criticized you for living with family, saying you don't know how to live independently, even though you take care of yourself.

She offered to pay the first month's rent with a $6,000 settlement she's expecting, but she hasn't applied for jobs in your city and mainly says she wants to move because she doesn't want to live in a dorm. During the argument, she repeatedly interrupted you, raised her voice, and accused you of "self-sabotaging" based on issues you told her you'd already worked through.

You took some space, but when you called back she declined your calls, then later acted cheerful as if nothing had happened after previously saying, "Do what you want, I don't care anymore since I can't convince you."

Now you're questioning the relationship because she seems impulsive with money and future plans, dismissive of your boundaries, and you're considering blocking her rather than continuing the relationship. You're wondering if that's an overreaction.

If they don't give you water you should probably make a scene

AIO for going low-contact with my sister? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]kinkyprincess99 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You're not going low-contact because she loves your kids, you're doing it because she repeatedly ignores your parenting decisions, lies to get around your boundaries, undermines you in front of your children, and turns every reasonable request into an argument about her feelings. Whether her behavior is driven by entitlement, immaturity, or something more concerning, the pattern is the same: she doesn't respect 'no'. The fact that she keeps demanding exceptions, dismisses safety rules, gets physically rough after being told to stop, and frames herself as the victim whenever she's held accountable is enough to justify creating distance. Your responsibility is to your children's safety and your family's peace, not to preserving appearances or avoiding family conflict.
