Boyfriend Snaps Girlfriend Calls Styrofoam, “Stryofoam” Even After Him Explaining It’s Not. Says, “Ofcouse, You Don’t Listen.” Is He Abusive?

Some individuals have a knack for conjuring drama from the most unlikely sources. Take, for instance, the tendency to become irate over the failure to recall something entirely illogical or nonsensical they mentioned recently. Today, we stumbled upon a comparable online episode that perfectly exemplified this behavior.

An internet user recently asked, Am I a jerk for mansplaining to my girlfriend? Tell us what you think about it. 

Backstory:

OP doesn’t think this is an issue of mansplaining, but he wants to present his girlfriend’s perspective of the issue fairly and objectively. He doesn’t want to make this story seem completely one-sided, like some of the other stories he reads on the internet. 

OP Loves Fun Fact

OP (23M) is someone who loves fun facts. He loves telling his friends and family fun facts and seeing their faces light up with the same interest as he had when he first learned the fact.

The Problem Begins

OP has been getting the feeling lately that his girlfriend (23F) isn’t really treating him with respect.

When she talks to him, she acts kind of withdrawn and dismissive, and he sometimes feels like she responds to him as though she’s like a boss speaking to a subordinate. Whenever he tells her things, she may be listening or she may not be.

What Happened Yesterday?

Yesterday, OP told her a fun fact about how styrofoam containers aren’t actually made from styrofoam, instead they are made from a material known as polystyrene, and she didn’t even blink as she just said ok.

What Happened Today?

Today they were over at a friend’s house for dinner, and she let them take some pasta home for leftovers, and OP heard his girlfriend say, “Hand me that styrofoam container”.

OP got a little annoyed since this was proof that she doesn’t give a damn about the things he said, so he said in an annoyed voice, “It’s made of polystyrene, not styrofoam, but I guess it doesn’t matter what I say since you wouldn’t listen anyway”. 

What Next?

After that, all hell basically broke loose, and OP’s girlfriend refused to talk to him because he was rude, even though he thinks he was just pointing out that she is being disengaged and disrespectful to him by not caring about the things he say and making him feel unimportant.

What do you think?

We’d Do The Same

“I wouldn’t listen to you either. Styrofoam is a brand name for polystyrene.” Said one. 

“Fun fact: OP is mad because his GF won’t feed his ego, he doesn’t actually care about what styrofoam is called.” Another added.

“Being a pedant is not a personality.” Said one. 

“In my books, he doesn’t even make the cut as a pedant: pedants tend to know their stuff a little more deeply than OP.” Another added.

You Sound Incredibly Annoying

“The common name used is styrofoam, so her calling it that doesn’t mean she’s not paying attention to you.

Sharing fun facts is fine, but it’s unreasonable to share a fun fact about, as an example, the scientific name for turkeys, and then get mad when the person you told continues to use the word “turkey” instead of the scientific name.

I really hope this is the first time you made this type of comment about your girlfriend not paying attention to what you say because if it isn’t, that sounds incredibly annoying.”
