It all began when the man took to Reddit to express his thoughts on how he’s been faring now that his girlfriend is eight months pregnant.
He revealed that he had refused to take her to the hospital, causing widespread condemnation.
Many have criticized the man for his callous attitude and lack of empathy towards his partner’s wellbeing.
The general feeling among commenters is that the man’s behavior was unacceptable, and he was most definitely the ‘a**hole’ in the situation.
“The medical staff always prefer that you go in over nothing, rather than leave it too late with something. Screw this guy.”
Someone else said: “27 and 21, she doesn’t have family or friends to support her, so she’s isolated, and she’s pregnant. The perfect situation for her to be abused, and he’s clearly taking advantage of that.”
“This is so f***ed and terrifying,” a final Reddit user added, “this poor woman is trapped with this man.”
