A woman revealed she had lost all trust in her boyfriend because of the name he had picked for their pet cat.
As an anonymous lady revealed in her Reddit post, she and her boyfriend got a cat but couldn’t agree on how they would call the feline.
While the girlfriend suggested several names, her boyfriend called all of them either “too common” or “too plain” while insisting they should name their pet after his ex-girlfriend.
To make matters worse, and cause his girlfriend to grow very suspicious of his behavior, the man repeatedly insisted on naming the cat after his ex even after his girlfriend confronted him about his choice of name.
“My boyfriend’s sister’s cat recently gave birth to kittens and we plan on taking one home. While we’ve been purchasing things and getting our home ready for our new little friend, we have of course been debating possible names for her,” the woman wrote.
“My boyfriend’s top contender for the cat is the name of his ex-girlfriend. It is a name that he had never heard before he met her and 100 per cent still associates with her.
“I’ll admit that it is a very pretty name but I do not want to name our kitten after his ex. My boyfriend thinks I am being too uptight about this and that it doesn’t really matter since his ex is out of the picture, but I don’t want our kitten associated with his ex.”
She added: “Any name I have suggested my boyfriend has an issue with as it is either ‘too plain’, ‘too common’ or ‘too old-fashioned’ and he is unwilling to compromise.”
After asking the platform for advice, the lady quickly received lots of support and advice from fellow Redditors.
“It’s so weird that he wants to name a cat after his ex. Like, so weird,” someone wrote.
“It definitely gives the impression he isn’t over her,” another added.
The third wrote: “Sounds like you have two pets now – a kitten and a very big elephant in the room.”
