The dating landscape is brutal right now. In fact, it might be so bad that many people don’t even want to date. According to a 2023 Pew survey, 57% of American women said they’re not even looking to date. Many just enjoy being single or have other priorities in their lives at the moment, but some get discouraged by seeing the behavior of their friends’ and acquaintances’ partners.
Each month, Bored Panda brings you stories about the worst boyfriends that you’ve ever seen, and this July is no exception. Plenty of guys tested their partners’ patience this past month, and here are the most brutal, entertaining, and ridiculous things they did to earn the title of “The Worst Boyfriend of the Month.”

#21 Aita For Throwing Out The Sandwhich I Made For My BF?

Two gourmet sandwiches with roast beef, lettuce, tomato, and onion on a dark plate, as a visual for men's complaints.
I (25 F) live with my boyfriend (27 M) and stepson ( 4)- my boyfriend is who works but when I can find work- I do.

I cook and clean after them both and this is okay with me as he pays for all of our expenses. Im happy too.

My stepson asked for chocolate milk and my boyfriend asked for some snacks and a glass of milk.

I made him a turkey sandwich with mayo and double cheese with two snack cakes and a glass of milk. Along with the chocolate milk.

He often feels upset over the way I make food for him and how often. ( no mustard. You didnt fill it all the way. Not even ought salt and pepper Etc )

I admit I need to make meals at least once a day and am slacking.

When I brought him his food he said " im not eating this sandwich I asked for snacks"

He wasnt angry more nonchalant and monotone.

I had spent the last hour or so doing my makeup and my outfit so we could take pictures together and have fun later-.....

So when he said he asked for snacks and this food was wrong it upset me and hurt my feelings greatly so I grabbed the sandhwich and threw it out and told him fine then, he doesnt have to eat it.

He says im getting upset and acting stupid over nothing and he did nothing wrong.

#22 Aita For Wanting My Boyfriend To Spend Time With Me?

The title is so vague but idk how to phrase it better so I'm sorry abt that

But basically my boyfriend and I are both almost 17 so we're both in school. We've been dating for almost a year now and we're mildly long distance. We met in a school extracurricular so we only get to see each other during it. This extracurricular is debate and we get to see eachother whenever we go to the others city for a tournament.

I won't be going for tournaments for a few months since I have my exams in a while so we decided to meet up this weekend for an mun conference. He's new to it but he was genuinely interested in trying it out cause he thought it seemed fun. It was for two days and we had already mildly hyped it up because it would be our last time spending time together for a while. We researched together (we're both nerds if that wasn't clear) and everything.

But there was a debate tournament scheduled for the same weekend. He had already told his teammates he couldn't come before hand cause he registered a while ago and had to pay quite for the mun thing right

So on Saturday he called me and he told me that he wouldn't be able to make it on Sunday because his teammates were making him debate. To make it clear they already had another team member in his place and they had already done 5 rounds on Saturday with him, and they were going fine.

I was obviously upset because I expected him to be there and I was going to miss him quite a lot. I've also been very emotional these days due to unrelated issues so I did mildly break down. My boyfriend freaked out and told his friends that he really wanted to go for mun because he spent money and it was his last time seeing me for a while

So during this time I was staying over at a hostel with a friend and she realised I was crying. She's dating one of my boyfriends friends who's also in the debate team.

I got into an argument with her because she couldn't understand why I didn't want my boyfriend to go to debate and to spend some time with me. She told me that I'm way too clingy and that's probably true but I'm not going to see him for atleast 6 more months? He has plenty more tournaments in that time

My friend and her boyfriend are now pissed at me. Her boyfriend didn't even go for the tournament but that's not relevant

My boyfriend ended up going for debate so I just spent mun alone

So AITA for being upset that they wanted him to choose an extracurricular over me?

#23 Aita For Asking My BF To Put Away The BBQ Sauce? I Know What You’re Thinking, It’s Just BBQ Sauce What’s The Big Deal? Except That It Wasn’t Just The Sweet And Tangy BBQ But Cheese Dip Too…

so the day is winding down and I’m cleaning up a little before bed. Going around gathering up any trash, picking up socks and shoes, and now this is where it gets good…kitchen time. I start cleaning off the table, I pick up the two condiments in question, and head over to the fridge. Well my bf is just standing there, not doing anything in particular and is blocking the door. I do what anybody would do and say “excuse me”. He all of a sudden goes into a full on, arms wide up in the air stretch/yawn combo and says “hold on”. Well, I wait a few seconds and nothing so I just put them down on the counter in front of him and ask if wants to put those away when he’s done. Silly me, for thinking he could just open the door and pop those in there. He says ”nope” but I laugh it off thinking he’s joking. He in fact was not joking bc he then proceeds to walk away and leave those two sad, room temperature sauces on the counter. So was that an unreasonable ask? Or is it ok that it really really bugged me? Such a small thing, I know. But I feel like life is built on small moments.

#24 Aita For Continuing To Like K-Pop And Have Photo Cards Of K-Pop Idol While My Boyfriend Dislikes It?

So this all started when I met a girl at school and became good friends with her and we had common interests like same shows, games, etc, and she was the one that introduced me to k-pop but I also feel like apart of myself was curious about it at one point in my life but didn't really bother too much.

But anyway I would listen to songs that she liked I would find songs that I enjoyed and listen to a k-pop radio station at work and when i'm at home or have free time. But I feel like I was more intrigued and more interested with it the more I continued and my boyfriend despises k-pop saying that "you only like them mainly because they are attractive" which yes I admit I find some of them cute just like a celebrity crush but not being super obsessive over them.

When he knew that I continued to like k-pop he got a SEVENTEEN album from his work and I told him that the album comes with other stuff like the photo cards and other stuff and when he heard photo cards he didn't like it but he still got me the album and it's on my shelf and everything is inside even the photo cards.

And then some other time My friend (the one that introduced me to k-pop and i'm good friends with) she gifted me on my birthday a decorated sleeve card of Felix from stray kids because I said that he was one of my favorites and my boyfriend at one point was saying that she is influencing me too much with the whole k-pop and k-pop idol stuff and recently I got a cortis album because I enjoy their music a lot and it came with 2 cards in them and I displayed them right next to my felix card on my desk mini shelf. And he got really mad about the cards saying that "why do you have other pictures of guys that's weird" telling me that I need to get rid of them or throw them away because it bothers him and he doesn't like it. But I have them decorated on my shelf and I'm not the type to think extreme with these idols because I'm choosing my boyfriend the one that I love but I'm unsure what to do at this point.
