This girl and her new boyfriend's relationship had been developing nicely until he suddenly asked her to drop out of college and give him her tuition money to help him fix his car.
This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by the girlfriend, Redditor u/Throwrapaul447, who is wondering if she is in the wrong for not agreeing to her boyfriend's demands.
Commenters were appalled at the boyfriend's request and let the poster know that this kind of behavior is often used to manipulate the victim into being dependent on the other party. Other examples of this controlling behavior can involve trying to get the target toquit their job. That's the best-case scenario for this too as this is also highly likely to just be a scam. It's amazing how elaborate some of these scams can be these days and the lengths that the scammer will go to establish trust before pulling the scam. Just see the "Tinder Swindler" for a textbook example of this.
