Need an insight into this situation....

Asked b/f for financial help, stated that he would work towards it. Its been a month and he did not come through. I have not pushed. Then he calls be asking to have a key to my place, stating that his place would have too many people there for the holiday. I refused to give him a key and reminded of how he did not help me when I needed his help. Then b/f contacts me and starts bragging about he bought some family members a cell phone each and how he sent a cab to pick up his friend from the airport because he did not have time to go there. I did not say anything.

 

What is going on here? Can someone give share some ideas as to what he is up to?

It sounds like he has your financial needs and altruism on a lower priority than his own need to impress other people for selfish reasons.

Yep! He is a gob****e! Insensitive, ignorant, and doesn't put you first. Of course you may only been going together for a short time in which case he may not have felt comfortable lending you money, but then again he shouldn't have asked you for a key to your place as he was unwilling to help you out, its not like he didn't have the money.

 

I helped my g/f out when she wanted to buy her sick mom a tv for her bedroom for Christmas (We had only been seeing each other for a few months). My g/f works and I am a student, I barely had the money, and I was going to be short of cash over the holidays, but I gave it willingly and she paid me back as soon as she could. I never reminded her about the loan, didn't need to, she said thanks and thats what happens when its cool.

 

Best of luck with this guy!

Your comments have confirmed my thoughts.

 

I just have to choke it up and move on. Thanks for the insight.
