To end 1 month relationship over this tiny thing

[bicyclecrash]

or am I being dramatic?

Please be honest if im overreacting. Me and my boyfriend have been together officially for 6 weeks, it's going really well. Yesterday we went out for dinner and I drove us back to mine after. On the way back, he rolled down the window and threw his empty drink can out of my car. As soon as he rolled down the window i knew that was what he was going to and asked / begged him not to as I'm the one who's car it is and I don't want someone posting my car all over the local facebook group saying rubbish is being thrown out of it.

Also it gave me the ick. I find it a bit grim that he couldn't wait 10 mins till we got to my house to throw his rubbish away.

He’s shown a complete lack of respect on 2 levels. Get rid of him before it gets worse.

Vile. YANBU.

Twat

Dump. It's disrespectful to you and the general public. It says a lot about his mindset/values and the type of person he is. I suspect he usually lives in filth - I say usually as he might have made an effort to be tidy while he reels you in.

Then we get to him ignoring you. Again disrespectful and rude. If he respected you he would have stopped.

Back into the sea he goes…disrespected the planet and you.

He has no doubt been doing it all his life and will do it the rest of his life. Whilst spawning kids that do the same as he is their role model. So no not one isolated case.

It’s the total disregard and selfishness. How unattractive

In the early days in a relationship people are showing you their best side. This is his best behaviour and it's squalid. Its not even as if he didnt know you found it offensive as he just paid no attention to your request that he not throw litter from your car. Imagine in a few years when he's "comfortable" and what sort of things he'll likely be doing. I wouldn't be surprised if he had a criminal record. If you are planning children one day, would you want your children to have his genetic inheritance? I certainly wouldn't. Incidentally, unless he was raised by wolves his damily are probably just like him. Get out now and save yourself a great deal of misery.

Throwing it out is weird and a bit feral. Ignoring you "begging" him not to is an absolute "Fuck off out of my life forever" moment.

I bet he spits on the pavement too

I can’t stand seeing people litter. Just hold onto your rubbish until you get to a bin. That would have put me right off a man. I wouldn’t look at him the same.

Very much not a tiny thing,

What a twat. Dump him.

I'd be more inclined to toss him out the window of a moving car, the dirty bastard.

It’s been 6 weeks and you’re not invested, bin him off. Guaranteed this won’t be the only gross thing he does either. If you were married and it was the only time he’d done it in 35 years, you could probably let it slide with a telling off (assuming he was normally not a dick) but this isn’t cool.

A couple of pp say this could be a one-off and trivial. It won't be.

There are those who would never dream of dropping litter, no matter how small it is or where they are, and those who don't care and happily leave their rubbish anywhere. You don't just once throw a can out of a car.

That's apart from the issue of him ignoring her request not to.

Throwing rubbish out of the window isn’t a tiny thing. It tells a lot about the sort of person he is.

Awful behaviour- get rid!

Get rid.

Disregard for the planet is a massive ick. I’d bin him.

6 weeks is hardly a relationship ~ just as well, though, as this is a righteous reason to end it and at least you won't have got too fond of him. What next? Spitting in the street?

I love that it's nearly unanimous on the vote. It's good to have standards. This guy is a useless shitbag.

Bin him, along with the empty can.

I'd hate that.. its ok throwing rubbish out of your car while your driving yet he's anonymous not to mention being a scruff.
Dump him.
