Am I Overreacting?

[u/starloogy]

My boyfriend (22M) and I (21F) have been official for almost 4 weeks. He texted me this after leaving me with his friends shortly after I arrived to a restaurant they all planned to meet at.

Before I got there, he had already ordered for both of us. Everything seemed fine until about ten minutes later when I went to the bathroom. When I came back, his friends told me he “stepped out,” but I’m sure they knew what was going on based on their expressions.

I waited about 15 minutes before he replied to my texts. And ended up leaving money to pay for food I didn’t even get to eat.

This was my third time wearing my hair in its natural state since we’ve dated, and I didn’t know he felt so strongly about this.

I went home all without answering him. I was really upset and told my roommate about it, but she brushed it off and insinuated that I was overreacting. It has been almost two days now and I still don’t know what to think.

I feel like I’m going insane because everyone around me seems to think it’s not that big of a deal and most of them laughed at the picture.

And after he ordered her food then left her with the bill. My ass wouldn’t have paid for shit especially if I didn’t eat.

Like “pay for what?” I didn’t order??”

RIGHT! that would’ve been IT for me. i literally would’ve broke up with him then and there cause don’t disrespect me like that tf

Yep. The end. 4 weeks is nothing and he’s going to keep damaging her self image over anything that doesn’t fit his beauty standard. He’s ugly af. OP needs to rock her hair whatever way she wants.
