I won the lottery but my boyfriend’s reaction was appalling – he was so cruel to me after I refused to buy him a Tesla

A LOTTERY winner was left devastated by her boyfriend's cruel behaviour after she refused to use her winnings to buy him a Tesla.

The 26-year-old woman explains that her partner branded her a "cheapskate" after she refused to meet his demands which included a big house with a pool and a Tesla.

Taking it to Reddit the woman sought other people's advice as her friends have also been very "cruel" and the whole situation has left her "devastated."

The woman explained that she won "quite a lot of money" and was planning to help her family and invest the rest to make sure she has a "stream of revenue for years to come" so she can "live comfortably".

She wrote in her post: "I grew up poor, very poor and while I worked my way up, my closest family is still struggling. I help but I cannot fix everything, well I couldn’t before."

But following her "life-changing" win, her boyfriend of seven months, Andy, 30, had other plans.

She continued: "He basically came up with a list of items he needs and has been pressuring me into getting them before I even speak to my financial advisors.

"Basically, he wants a new car... he wants something like a Tesla, which he absolutely doesn’t need.

"He wants us to move in together and for me to buy a house with a pool. He started talking about kids, even though he knows I want to be childfree."

The 26-year-old says refused "every single request" but her partner's reaction has been appaling.

She added: "He’s not very happy. He’s been calling me a scrooge, telling me I don’t love him anymore or calling me a cheapskate.

"Worst of all, he told every one of our friends about this and they’s started pressuring me as well, asking me to fund their nights out."

She said her friends had been “very cruel” and the situation has left her "devastated."

Redditors were quick to offer their input, warning her to stay away from her boyfriend and her friends.

One said: "I'm thinking move to a new place without telling bf or friends where it is.

"And lose the boyfriend no matter what the financial advisors say--he's pressuring you hard and doesn't care what you want.

"You've been dating him all of seven months. That's NOTHING, and he thinks it entitles him to whatever you have--and he's pushing for a baby to create permanent ties."

Another one agreed: "He'll have the kid for a couple of days over the holidays and claim child support from her winnings, no doubt."

Someone added: "The audacity of the boyfriend. It’s not even a year and already he is showing his true colours.

"The verdict is straightforward. Time to ditch leeches."
