What happens when a man becomes paranoid that his girlfriend is only interested in his money? A lot of auditions and tests, apparently. But when the girlfriend finally calls it quits, is it really her fault? One Reddit user shared the story of her brother’s relationship and his obsession with making sure his girlfriend wasn’t a gold digger. However, when his tactics backfired and she decided to leave him, he called her a b-word and turned to his sister for support. But when she called him out on his behavior, things turned ugly. Was the sister right to tell him he got what he deserved? Or is it understandable to want to protect your assets in a relationship? Read on for the full story.

Is it wrong to test and audition your partner to see if they are with you for the right reasons? In a recent incident, a man’s paranoia about his girlfriend using him for his wealth led him to go to extreme lengths to test her loyalty. When the tests proved his suspicions, he confronted her, leading to a breakup. While the man believes he was being cautious, his brother, who is close to the now-ex-girlfriend, believes he went too far.
