Lady Yells At Her Fiancé For Deleting Her Project Just Because She Didn’t Attend A Birthday Party With Him

The OP's fiancé came from a family that was very concerned with their ego and image.

It can be difficult to attain a balance between work and other aspects of our lives. At times, it seems that both parties are strongly opposed to each other.

Striving for work-life balance is a widely held belief. Unfortunately, no matter how hard we may try, our work may encroach upon our personal lives.

Achieving work-life balance becomes easier when you have an understanding partner who supports your career goals and aspirations. Unfortunately, Redditor Anna34757, a web developer, had a completely different experience.

She shared a troubling story on the AITA subreddit community about how her petty fiancé took drastic measures to retaliate for a minor issue that didn’t warrant such childish behavior. The OP is committed to her work and understands the value of meeting deadlines.

She was on a tight deadline to complete an important backend project that could lead to a promotion and a raise at work. The OP’s fiancé insisted that she accompany him to his best friend’s birthday party.

However, she apologized and explained that she had a very important project that she needed to finish before the deadline. This explanation wasn’t enough for him.

As a result, he decided to retaliate against the OP in an unimaginable way. Find out more as you scroll to read the full story.

Working toward your goals is difficult when your partner does not support or understand your plight. It’s especially challenging when they’re also manipulative.

Such individuals are insecure and can stifle one’s development. Here’s the story in full:

The OP later mentioned in the comments section that her fiancé came from a family that was very concerned with their ego and image, and it appears that seeing the OP’s progress in her career could be threatening to him. Some men are that way, and it is so shallow-minded.

Redditors, on the other hand, all agreed that the OP was correct in insisting on finishing the project ahead of any outing. Scroll down to see some of their comments.

Don't stay silent if your partner is petty and constantly letting you down, or if he or she is generally making life difficult for you over the smallest reasons. You should have an honest discussion about it before it causes you irreparable harm.

Finally, everyone wants someone who listens to and understands their problems, boosts their morale, and is readily available in times of difficulty and doubt. No more, no less!
