Man, take a hint, lady…
If someone explicitly tells you NOT to do something, just don’t do it!
But this guy’s girlfriend thought she’d handle things her own way, and it ended up blowing up in her face.
Did he do anything wrong?
Read on and see what you think…
AITA for ghosting my GF after she invited my abusive parents to my birthday?
“I (27M) have been no contact with my parents since I was 18 because they abused me.
I never mention them and have made it very clear that I don’t want them in my life.
My GF (25F) and I were dating for six months, and she would always ask about my family.
I kept telling her that I wasn’t comfortable discussing it, and she should respect that.
Uh oh…
Now, I do not celebrate birthdays.
It just isn’t something I enjoy doing.
Last month, though, my GF organized a surprise birthday party for me.
I figured it was just going to be the two of us, but when I showed up, there were tons of random co-workers I only occasionally speak with.
That already angered me, but I dismissed it.
Wow!
Then she dropped the bombshell she had called my parents and invited them.
I totally shut down at that point.
I was furious, but I didn’t make a scene.
I just went along with it and left as soon as I could.
See ya later!
Two weeks after, I ghosted her and dumped her.
No explanation, no closure just blocked her everywhere.
She ignored my boundaries and disrespected something I had made clear was a hard no.
I don’t think she deserved any explanation after that.
AITA?”

Another reader said he’s NTA.
This Reddit user agreed.
Another person thinks this story is FAKE.
And another Reddit user chimed in.
Saying that she went too far is putting it mildly…
She has to know she deserves what she gets.
