UPDATE: AITA for waiting 3 months to prove my boyfriend wrong?

My boyfriend and I have read the comments on my previous post. We’ve had a good laugh at all the comments calling us manipulative, gaslighting and petty lol.

I’ve enjoyed having my feelings and my methods vindicated, and my boyfriend acknowledges that he shouldn’t have been so curt.

But I have to clarify that my boyfriend is a beautiful, kind, and sensitive man, and that his not remembering the incident in question is not evidence of him gaslighting me, but of just how silly this whole situation is. He’s always been nothing less than honest with me (maybe even to a fault haha), and we’ve always had good communication. I love him, and we both find his mispronunciation really funny.

“But why didn’t you google it?” Because that’s not what Benjamin Linus would have done. He’d plot and connive, because he’s a petty ho, so that’s exactly what I did.

Bf here: You may be asking (as my boyfriend aka OP was), why and how the hell did I think her name was Helene? The explanation is as simple as it is stupid: I was also rewatching The Office at the time this incident took place and there IS a character named Helene in it. However, I recognize that I was an asshole in this situation.

    May this type of relationship never find me. Does your boyfriend even care that he always thinks he’s right?

    Google is a fine mediary, no need to hold onto it or make a Reddit post. Cool you’re catching up on Lost I guess.

    You both seriously need to get a life. This whole thing is embarrassing.

    These comments are weird, it sounds a fun argument and if he boyfriend saying she was wrong once got her to wait all that time, I’d say they have it pretty good.

    It’s so hilarious when women post about their shitty partners and then follow up with “Noooo I promise he’s amazing” lmao.

    People are just leaving hateful weird comments because you didn’t break up with each other and likely your relationship is stronger because of your confrontation and reading the replies together 😂

    Not really sure what you want from us, but congrats on having a shitty relationship I guess.
