A young woman shared a shocking story on Reddit’s “AITA” subreddit. She had inherited a two-story home from her father and rented out the first floor for a modest $500 per month. The low rent was due to the house’s distance from the city, but similar properties in the area were going for $600 to $700 per month.
The woman had been dating her boyfriend for three months when he asked to move in with her. He was having trouble with his rent and didn’t want to move back in with his parents. She agreed, and they lived together for three months, splitting only the grocery bills.
However, the woman had not informed her boyfriend that she was the owner of the house. She didn’t think it was a big deal, but everything changed when her tenant approached her about a broken freezer. Her boyfriend overheard the conversation and was shocked to learn that she was the landlord.
The boyfriend’s reaction was unexpected and alarming. He became angry and accusatory, yelling at her for not disclosing that she was the owner of the house. He called her selfish and evil, claiming that landlords only care about money.
The situation escalated when the boyfriend demanded that she give him 50% of the rent money she received. He claimed that if she didn’t, she was just as bad as he thought. The woman was taken aback by his behavior and eventually ended the relationship.
When she asked her father to come over and help her deal with the situation, the boyfriend’s true intentions became clear. He claimed that if she didn’t rent out the property for the purpose of taking people’s money, she should have no problem giving away half of the rent. However, when she offered to donate half of the money to charity, he called her selfish and ashamed of her.
The woman’s father arrived, and the boyfriend stormed out, saying he never wanted to see them again. The woman was left shaken and relieved to be rid of her manipulative boyfriend. Redditors advised her to change the locks and be cautious in case her ex-boyfriend tried to contact her again.
