For many, family comes first. After all, these people are usually the ones who provide us with unwavering support, so it’s only fair that we stand by their side as well.
However, when you throw romantic relationships into the mix, things might get complicated, to say the least.
In this particular case, a young man ended up having to choose between his girlfriend, who suffers from severe PTSD, and his relatives, who don’t really understand her needs.
The woman requires specific conditions to sleep, but during the couple’s visit, they failed to adapt.
Now, the tables have turned and it’s the family who’s asking to stay at their apartment, but he fears this would, yet again, disrupt his girlfriend’s fragile sense of security.
To gain some perspective on the situation, he asked the subreddit ‘Am I the [Jerk]?‘ for advice.
