Woman Thought She Was Supporting Her Partner, Turns Out She Was Being Tested As A Gold Digger

It’s normal in the beginning of a relationship for people to “analyze” their new partner. After all, the couple needs to find out if they’re compatible.

However, there comes a point where that scrutiny is no longer about getting to know someone but about projecting your own fears and insecurities onto them.

And Reddit user Pleasant_Mission_63 thinks her fiancé and his family have crossed that line. In a candid post on r/AmIOverreacting, the woman revealed she was subjected to a gold-digger test without even realizing it.

    So much manipulation. Glad they both recognized the toxicity and are willing to seek counseling. The author possesses a great deal of strength, good for her.

    Any kind of "testing" is a huge red flag. On the other hand, the guy seems sincerely remorseful, so I'd give him a second chance, if I were in OP's shoes.
