Feeling helpless and fed up with her boyfriend's stingy lifestyle, the girl posted on social media to seek advice on whether to continue or stop. She said she was 24 years old, her boyfriend was 4 years older and was " gentle, hard-working, not romantic, frugal, or rather stingy".
They have been in love for nearly a year but he rarely gives gifts on holidays, and never flowers. "He never gives flowers because he thinks it is wasteful and silly. Only once he bought me a pair of earrings worth 120,000 VND but I lost them. After that he told his mother about this and she blamed me. On March 8th or October 20th, he always used the excuse of being busy to not take me out," the girl said.
The girl's confessions have caused a stir on social networks.
Her lover's meticulousness and strictness about material things made the girl extremely worried: "I have the feeling that he pays a lot of attention to food. Sometimes when there are 3 fried nem chua left on a plate, he says you eat one, he eats one, and splits the remaining one in half. I think he must have counted in his head how many there are in total..."
During their dating time, the guy mostly went to his girlfriend's house, hanging out in the living room and rarely went out. The author wrote: " Every time he took me out, he sighed and said it was better to drink water at home... The climax was when we went to a milk tea shop, I just picked up the menu and he reminded me to only order one dish, even though I only ordered one cup of milk tea and two side dishes each time. I was annoyed and went home."
Not only was she stingy, the girl was also upset about her boyfriend's patriarchal nature, saying that he often expressed dissatisfaction with her behavior and the way she dressed: "The day I met his parents, I wore a business dress, not revealing at all. He came to pick me up, halfway there he asked 'why are you wearing a dress, my parents don't like girls wearing dresses'. I said 'why didn't you tell me earlier', he replied 'I didn't tell you to see if you knew, if you were observant'. Every time I went out and wore a dress, he said 'look, no one else is wearing a dress, you're the only one wearing a dress'.
One day, her boyfriend had a death anniversary at his house. The girl knew what she was doing so she came early to help. After dinner, she also cleaned up and washed the dishes before leaving. Unexpectedly, that night, her boyfriend texted her to complain about eating shrimp at the death anniversary meal.
"He said, 'You should have peeled that shrimp and offered it to my mom, why did you eat it? You didn't pay attention at all.' But every time he had dinner at my house, my mom peeled the shrimp for him and he never once peeled shrimp for her," the girl said resentfully. She was in a "cold war" with her boyfriend and was thinking about whether to break up or not.

The girl's confession quickly attracted the attention of netizens with about 6 thousand comments. Most people advised the girl to break up immediately: "This personality is ingrained in the blood, it's hard to change. If you marry someone like that, you will only feel more hurt and resentful. You should quickly end it before it's too late"; "You are stingy, don't give up anything but are extremely demanding of your lover, want to control her way of dressing, want to manipulate everything, make her absolutely submissive. Run away now, my friend"...
A Facebook user commented: "Even I, as a man, am shocked by this type of man. The whole combo: patriarchal, stingy, clingy to his mother's skirt. He has completely lost the image of men."
Some people criticized the girl for being too soft, weak, and cowardly to endure this calculating and patriarchal man for nearly a year. "If you continue this love, you are treating yourself badly, not anyone else's fault," commented a netizen.
Besides the advice on breaking up, some opinions say that the decision to continue or stop depends entirely on the girl's feelings: "Reconsider your own feelings, if both of you truly love each other then you can consider a long-term relationship. Don't let your thoughts not be thorough and then get married and then divorce, at that time the children will be the ones who suffer the most."
