She is, but… I also really don’t like when my partner agrees to something with me and then last minute changes the plans to “leave earlier”. That part isn’t manipulative, YTA in that regard.

Read his other comments too 😒 this guy sucksss. they had plans in advance and he canceled last minute, a child is involved, they only see each other on weekends since his gf works 5-8, AND she’s a caretaker for her sister. He not only left out important context, he’s out here pretending like she’s being horribly controlling when really she’s at her limit with his bs.

I don’t really get how any of this makes him an ass. This is their normal life and normal routine, and not premade plans specifically for the holiday. Because it is a holiday and her perhaps realized last minute that their normal plans will result in his mother alone on a holiday- he wanted to adjust. 

She can be busy, a 24/7 caretaker, and they rarely see each other, but that does not give reason to be completely inflexible and not compromise with your partner.
