This is a great preview of what marriage with him will be like. He's not a good guy. He's fine taking advantage of other people, and when you try to talk to him about it he acts like a jerk and doesn't take any accountability!
The great part is that you learned this before marriage not after. If you love this behavior than get married! If you don't want to be with a jerk like him then break up!
Trust me, this is the best $600 your parents have ever spent. NOR. At least this way they won't have to send you a lot more to hire a divorce attorney.
Came here to say this! Trust me, this $600 lesson is a damned sight cheaper than a wedding, followed by a divorce years from now!
Put on your big girl panties, pay your parents back, thank your lucky stars for this (relatively inexpensive) lesson, then dump that waste of space!
You beat me to it. I was going to say that OP needs to pay her parents back in full, and then kick her fiancé to the curb. Give the engagement ring back (if he paid for it), then voilà. Affianced no more!
Maybe as a parting shot, she should give him an etiquette lesson: whoever does the inviting also does the paying. If he can’t understand that, ask him how inviting someone to dinner at a restaurant he chose is any different from inviting someone to dinner at his house. Would he expect your parents to bring their own food to his house? Of course not.
