Today, after doing vigorous chores all day with my girlfriend, her mom came and paid us each $100. My girlfriend cried and threw a fit because she said they were her chores, so she deserves all the money. FML

Today, I took my girlfriend to get her nails done, gave her 500 spending money, took her to eat, bought her son a TV, then bought her clothes. We get to her house, she steps inside then gets furious her son had made a mess and hadn't cleaned his room. She told me to take the TV back, which I did, then got reamed for doing so. FML

Today, after weeks of my girlfriend complaining that I don't help with the chores, I secretly took a day off work to deal with some that were piling up. When she got home, all she could do was complain about how I hadn't done more. FML

Today, I was talking to my mom about my issues with my girlfriend. While she was sympathizing, she slowly picked up my wallet, took $100 and left. FML

Today, I spent all day doing chores around the house, including mowing and raking the lawn, paying bills, going to the store, meal prepping, and cleaning the fridge. When I sat down to enjoy some well-earned games, my girlfriend sighed and asked if I ever planned to contribute anything to our relationship. FML

Today, my girlfriend returned from a two day trip. I'd spent the time cleaning the house and working on house projects, so she wouldn't come home and be stressed. She got upset when she got home because the house was clean, and it made her feel inadequate. FML

Today, my mother started nagging me for spending $500 on a guitar, stating that, "We're not in the mood for unnecessary bullcrap." I paid for it with MY money, and she suddenly turned up at MY house because my father kicked her out of their house after finding out that she cheated on him. FML

Paid $100 for chores? Holy crap, that's about $100 more than most people get for doing chores at all. She sounds extremely spoiled.

That's is a greedy girlfriend and you shouldn't be with someone who is selfish. Either talk to her or distance yourself from her. Oh, and don't give her your money.

Maybe the mother predicted this by giving a large payment and anticipating the daughter's hissy fit, in order to warn OP about her true nature and let him dump her.

She's lucky she even got paid to begin with. My brothers and I didn't get paid for chores at all. What a brat.

I gotta assume you two are kiddos. One hundred dollars for a day of chores is more than most Americans make for a day of actual labor in the workforce. Then you take out insurance, taxes etc it's even less. Her mom seeks quite generous but maybe her kindness isn't helping her daughter much in the long run. With all that said, 100 bones for some chores?! Sign me up!

Give her the money, and walk away and never talk to her again.

this bothers me to no end. if you are old enough to have a boyfriend/girlfriend, you are old enough to do chores without needing to get paid, ESPECIALLY that much. that mom needs to start enforcing some rules, which will hopefully cause you to grow up a bit.
