A man has been left after his girlfriend ordered him out of their home so she could mourn in peace.
He detailed in a reddit post that his girlfriend “just lost someone close to her and mourn.” She asked if he was willing to leave their apartment for a week so she could have some time, but he could not honor that request.
“I told her sorry that I can’t because I don’t have where to go, my family lives too far away, my friends don’t really have room for me right now,” he wrote “and I don’t want to spend the money to stay in a hotel for a week.”
His decision has left his girlfriend “upset”, and she has accused him of “exacerbating things.”

The man revealed that he has not received much support from his friends, who thinks he should give his partner space but does not offer him alternative accommodation.
“They say I have to give her space but do not open their homes or offer to help with a hotel,” he wrote.

He continued that his girlfriend was not as economical as him when it came to expenses, and this is where part of the excitement comes from.
She “thinks it’s not so big to pay for a hotel for a week. That’s why she’s so upset, I asked her to help pay but her money goes against funeral costs,” he wrote.
The man sought feedback if he was wrong for not leaving, and Reddit users responded overwhelmingly to support him and questioned whether the relationship was in trouble.
“You are her BF (boyfriend), if she can’t be sad or mourn around you why is she with you or live with you? If you were married, would she expect you to leave every time then,” wrote a person.
Another commentator echoed that she asked him to leave was not a good indicator of how she processed her feelings when times became hard.

“If her handling mechanism for trauma is to drive you away, isn’t it good for your relationship. Do you really want to stay with someone who runs away when things get hard?” The comment wrote. “When things are light, life can be great! But the real test of a relationship is when things are difficult.”
Another questioned why the girlfriend did not choose to leave himself.
“She can get a hotel if she wants her own space,” the user wrote.
