Teen Gets Dragged Online For Not Letting His GF's "Mean" Mom Into His Apartment
"This woman has been ruining our lives and our relationship the entire time"
The problem is that moving in together has a number of drawbacks. Moving in with someone solely because it looks like the greatest option to reduce someone's commute or save money can be a bad decision.
Moving in with someone in an attempt to "fix" the relationship can be a horrible decision. Moving in with someone will always make your relationship worse if there are significant issues.
Actually, there's really only one compelling reason to move in with someone else: you love your partner and your relationship. You've given it a lot of thought, and you've decided together that you'd like to move forward with a shared future.
The original poster and his GF are living together, and they've been dating for close to five years. His girlfriend's mother decided to visit them, but OP said he didn't want her in his apartment.
For more context, the girlfriend's mom has been ruining their lives and their relationship the entire time he and his GF have been together. OP says that she hated him for no reason, saying he's crazy because he dyed his hair black.
OP also mentioned the GF's mom said that he had mental issues because he didn't smile in photos. He listed many more things that he suffered at the hands of his girlfriend's mom, and you can read all about it as you scroll down.
The OP writes...

OP has offered the following explanation for why they think they might be the AH:
1. I forbade my girlfriend's mother from visiting our apartment. 2. My girlfriend told me I was an AH, and I think I could really have done something wrong. I want to know what Reddit users think about this.Let's head into the comments section and find out what other Redditors have to say about the story

They both share the apartment now so it should be a joint decision

You have to make concessions if you want your relationship to thrive

If the mom wants to sabotage the relationship, the OP just aided it

This is sounding borderline abusive, making the OP's girlfriend reliant on him
Reddit
This is entirely from the OP's point of view
Reddit
The OP isn't an AH for his feelings but he failed to involve his GF in his decision

For this Redditor, the OP is softly the AH

Things like this are one of the reasons young relationships end - That boring adult issues that require consideration, discussion and compromise. Many Redditors agree that OP's girlfriend ought to have a voice in the guest policy if she lives there.
They've become incompatible if they can't reach a consensus where everyone feels valued and that their requirements are satisfied. In all, the OP was declared the AH and that's a wrap.
