Boyfriend Is Mad About His Girlfriend's Outfit That She Wore in Front of a Male Neighbor During an Emergency
A Reddit user described how her boyfriend is mad at how she responded to an emergency while she was home alone
The 26-year-old woman's boyfriend took issue with the outfit she had on while trying to remedy the emergency
While asking her neighbor for help at their apartment, the woman said she was wearing 'boy shorts and a tank top'A man is upset at his girlfriend for the outfit she had on when she asked her neighbor for help during an emergency while she was home alone.
The 26-year-old girlfriend chronicled the emergency, how her male neighbor came to the rescue and how her boyfriend reacted unfavorably to the situation on Reddit's popular 'Am I the A------' forum.
'My shower knob broke off while I was going to turn it on, and as this happened, water began spraying out of the knob and into the tub, but I had zero idea how to turn it off,' she wrote of the emergency.
'My landlord wasn't answering, and I just so happened to catch my neighbor from across the hall as he was coming home, and in my panic I asked him for help,' she recalled. 'He very quickly was able to stop the water from flowing by sticking a pair of pliers in the broken knob and turning something. So the day was saved!'
Her boyfriend, who has access to her front-door security camera, zoned in on the outfit she was wearing when she asked the neighbor for help.
'I was getting ready to shower, so I was wearing a pair of boy shorts and a tank top (nothing I'd even come close to wearing around others normally),' she said, adding that she was texting her boyfriend during the ordeal.
'He saw I was wearing essentially underwear while all of this happened,' she explained. 'My a-- was hanging out of my shorts because, well, they're underwear and had ridden up, which I almost immediately fixed.'
Her boyfriend is 'extremely upset' that she didn't put on more clothes before she sought out help from the male neighbor.
'In the moment I literally didn't think about it … the entire situation was just a shit show as I was running around like a chicken with its head cut off,' she wrote. 'I tried explaining all of this, but he's still upset at me.'
'I just don't feel sorry … I'm not apologizing because I feel like I don't need to,' she continued, adding that her boyfriend texted her that 'if you don't see anything wrong with any of that (referring to asking my neighbor for help) then I don't know what to tell you.'
Wondering if she's in the wrong, she asked Redditors, 'Am I the a------ for not getting properly dressed during an emergency?'
Many people questioned why her boyfriend has access to the camera, as it makes him seem 'controlling' since he doesn't live with her.
She addressed those Redditors' concerns, replying: 'He set up the ring camera for me, I had no idea what I was doing so that's why he has access to it, after reading everything on here I've since revoked it.'

'In a healthy relationship, you might end up laughing about a butt cheek hanging out on camera,' one reader wrote. 'Him acting like you were choosing to flaunt your body to a neighbor ... is worrying to say the least.'

Notable & Quotable: Bull Run
From the last letter of Maj. Sullivan Ballou, 2nd Rhode Island, killed at the First Battle of Bull Run, July 21, 1861: If it is necessary that I should fall on the battle-field for any country, I am ready. I have no misgivings about, or lack of confidence in, the cause in which I am engaged, and my courage does not halt or falter. I know how strongly American civilization now leans upon the triumph of government, and how great a debt we owe to those who went before us through the blood and suffering of the Revolution, and I am willing, perfectly willing to lay down all my joys in this life to help maintain this government, and to pay that debt. . . .

"Papa Jake," D-Day veteran and beloved TikTok star, dies at 102
D-Day veteran ″Papa Jake″ Larson, who survived German gunfire on Normandy's bluffs in 1944 and then garnered 1.2 million followers on TikTok late in life by sharing stories to commemorate World War II and his fallen comrades, has died at 102, his family announced Sunday. An animated speaker who charmed strangers young and old with his quick smile and generous hugs, the self-described country boy from Hope Township, Minnesota, was "cracking jokes til the end," his granddaughter wrote in announcing his death. Tributes to him quickly filled his "Story Time with Papa Jake" TikTok account from across the United States, where he had been living in Lafayette, California. Towns around Normandy, still grateful to Allied forces who helped defeat the occupying Nazis in World War II, paid him homage too. "Our beloved Papa Jake has passed away on July 17th at 102 years young," granddaughter McKaela Larson posted on his social media accounts. "He went peacefully." "As Papa would say, love you all the mostest," she wrote. Born Dec. 20, 1922, in Owatonna, Minnesota, Larson grew up during the Great Depression and, at times, he had no electricity or running water, he told CBS Minnesota. Larson said he lied about his age when he was 15 years old to enlist in the National Guard in 1938. In 1942, he was sent overseas and was stationed in Northern Ireland. He became operations sergeant and assembled the planning books for the invasion of Normandy. Larson learned to type with a typewriter in school, and when he was sent to France, he knew about typewriters as much as he knew about guns. "It changed my life. It raised me right up to the top," he told CBS Minnesota in an interview prior to his death. "Every person that landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day, came through these fingers. These fingers I'm showing you right now." He was among the nearly 160,000 Allied troops who stormed the Normandy shore on D-Day, June 6, 1944, surviving machine-gun fire when he landed on Omaha Beach. He made it unhurt to the bluffs that overlook the beach, then studded with German gun emplacements that mowed down American soldiers. Larson outlived many soldiers who were with him that day. "We are the lucky ones," Larson told The Associated Press at the 81st anniversary of D-Day in June, speaking amid the immaculate rows of graves at the American cemetery overlooking Omaha Beach. "We are their family. We have the responsibility to honor these guys who gave us a chance to be alive." He went on to fight through the Battle of the Bulge, a grueling month-long fight in Belgium and Luxembourg that was one of the defining moments of the war and of Hitler's defeat. His service earned him a Bronze Star and a French Legion of Honor award. In recent years, Larson made repeated trips to Normandy for D-Day commemorations — and at every stop, "Papa Jake" was greeted by people asking for a selfie. In return, he offered up a big hug, to their greatest joy. One memorable encounter came in 2023, when he came across Bill Gladden, a then-99-year-old British veteran who survived a glider landing on D-Day and a bullet that tore through his ankle. "I want to give you a hug, thank you. I got tears in my eyes. We were meant to meet," Larson told Gladden, as their hands, lined and spotted with age, clasped tightly. Gladden died the following year. In his TikTok posts and interviews, Larson combined humorous anecdotes with somber reminders about the horrors of war. Reflecting to AP on the three years he was in Europe, Larson said he is "no hero." Speaking in 2024, he also had a message to world leaders: "Make peace not war." He often called himself "the luckiest man in the world," and expressed awe at all the attention he was getting. "I'm just a country boy. Now I'm a star on TikTok," he told AP in 2023. "I'm a legend! I didn't plan this, it came about." Small-town museums and groups around Normandy that work to honor D-Day's heroes and fallen shared tributes online to Larson, one of their most loyal visitors. "He was an exceptional witness and bearer of memory," the Overlord Museum posted on Facebook. "He came every year to the museum, with his smile, his humility and his tales that touched all generations. His stories will continue to live. Rest in peace Papa Jake," it read. "Thanks for everything."
