My boyfriend asked me for the money after buying me cold medicine -needless to say we’re not together anymore!
A woman has claimed an ex-boyfriend once charged her for medicine she asked him to get for her because she was sick.
Jackie Li, a TikTok creator from Hawaii, said the ex-partner and her had been dating four years by the time he sent her a Venmo request to repay him $7 after he got Dayquil for her.
In a video that has since gone viral, Jackie explained she was shocked to wake up to the request, and added she now prefers relationships where her partners don’t obsess over every dime they spend for each other.
People were shocked by her tale, with many saying they’d get medicine without charge for their ‘mildest of acquaintances,’ let alone their significant other.
