A man is questioning whether he was wrong to tell his girlfriend that they cannot afford to live the sugar daddy lifestyle she desires. The man, who makes a good living, confronted his girlfriend after she kept comparing their relationship to those of her friends who receive lavish gifts and dinners from wealthy men. He pointed out that her friends work minimum wage jobs and questioned how they could afford such expensive lifestyles. The girlfriend accused him of judging her friends and being an a**hole. Was he in the wrong for making these observations or is his girlfriend being unreasonable?
