Aibu to be upset about this, did he overreact?

[bandmdrama]

Boyfriend of six months. I drove 10 miles earlier to pick him up and then another 6 miles to the car garage so he could pick his car up after being repaired. Afterwards he said he needed to go into b and m next door so I went in with him and picked up a couple of items that came to around 4 pound. When we were at the checkout I said oh can I just put these on yours as it's quicker. He said loudly where other people could hear that he is not a sugar daddy and he might as well have got an Uber as I was supposed to be saving him money by giving him a lift. I was embarrassed so I quickly left but I challenged him about it outside and said that he tried to embarrass me in public. He called me again on the way home and ranted to me that I had just seen him pay a large car repair bill and I should have more compassion and money doesn't grow on trees. By this point I was upset and I just said I would transfer him the four pound but he wouldn't accept that and then said it had been a joke. I feel so humiliated and upset and I'm seriously considering dumping him as surely this is likely to just be the start of his meanness?

What a prince of a man. A definite keeper! But then I am sure you know...

Unless this was hugely out of character and he was genuinely really stressed about getting a bill he doesn't know how he could afford, then yes, bin him.

Oh wow, I'd definitely dump someone over this.

Very mean spirited - if he's like this now over £4 after the favour you've done for him, just imagine what he'll be like over bigger things. I say get rid and fast.

Cheapest way to find out he's a wanker and needs to be your ex.

This.

Definitely transfer the £4 with 'You're dumped' as the reference.

You get treated the way you allow yourself to be treated. Make it clear now that you won't tolerate being treated like that. His behaviour and attitude stink! Get rid.

This. Dump and block. He's not worth your time.

How unattractive. That would be it for me. I couldn’t be with anybody who was that tight-fisted but also will g to humiliate me in public like that.

You picked him up then on to the garage, then a shop, that’s not even comparable to an Uber. Transfer the £4 to prove a point then move on and don’t look back.

Run for the hills!!!

Mega ick. What a c*nt

Yes leave him and be grateful you haven't wasted longer on him or worse didn't get any signs until marriage kids etc.

Yep. Id have dumped him there n then tbh

This

Please please please do this! 🙏🏼

Throw this one back. Bad sign of things to come. It sounds like he was scolding you about finances 'money doesn't grow on trees' blah blah blah. Was he grateful for you driving him around? How dare he rant at you.

Do they sell red flags in B&M?

That would be it for me. I find tightness a turn off.

He took you for granted. He is mean with his money but happy for you to spend time, energy and money helping him. He thinks you are 'supposed to be saving him money'. He thinks it is ok to shame you in public. He thinks it is ok to try to gaslight you.

He doesnt sound much like a catch, does he? I think you can do and deserve much much better. Take care of yourself. I hope you never have to speak to him again.

If you can be arsed, get said coinage from a bank, spell put whichever word or phrase you think best suits the occasion (personal fav here is WANKER), take a photo and send it with the caption "Here's your £4"
Job done ✔️

Dump his ass. And post four quid in pennies through his letterbox!

He's a shit, he embarrassed you on purpose. Dump him he's a loser.

He is a total cunt, get rid.

And don't send this arse any money like people have suggested. It will make you look like a complete mug.

Run!

He sounds fucking awful
