“YTA. You’re lashing out on your girlfriend because you acted poorly and you don’t want to admit you’re wrong. This whole post is you making bad decision after bad decision to protect your own ego. That’s a really bad look dude. Your girlfriend is not materialistic for being upset you didn’t keep your promise or for noticing the fake was a fake.

With a fake, you run the risk that the ingredients may be unsafe.”
