Being a financially independent woman, I believe that sharing expenses with your boyfriend is quite healthy in a relationship. It also signifies that just one person is not bearing the entire responsibility of the relationship. However, there are certain occasions when it is not necessary to split up the expenses. Suppose, one of you is taking the other on a lunch date to meet your parents. Will you want to split the money then, I ask this regardless of gender. Recently I came across a hilarious but also a sad video on Twitter where a girl shares the experience of staying at her boyfriend’s place, and in the end, reveals how he later asked her to pay for the most trivial thing ever. This was the biggest red flag, TBH.

The Twitter user who re-shared this video on her Twitter handle wrote that she would have dumped him the moment he shared the excel sheet. You will not get the reference at first and wil have to watch the video for it. Now, in the video, the woman narrates about the incident when she once visited her ex-boyfriend’s mother and in fact, had also stayed with her for a couple of days. The woman further says that they together had breakfast and also dinner once.

When she returned from the trip, her boyfriend shared an excel sheet with her, with all the expenses from the trip that the girl owed him. Okay, this is not the weird part because as per the woman, it was a normal thing in their relationship. However, she was shocked to see that the boy had also asked her to pay for the banana and toast that she had for breakfast. Umm, well, I initially did not know how to react to this, and maybe so did the girl. She went back to her boyfriend to get clarification on this. However, he was very casual about it, and the girl finally ended up paying for it. Glad, that she eventually dumped him as well.

Now, this experience was rather a lot to take in. At the end of watching the video, I was happy that the boy did not ask her to pay the house rent as well, but who knows, maybe he did.
