AITAH for not talking to my bf after he suggested on putting another girl all over his car?

My boyfriend (20M) and I (19F) have been together for almost 2 years. We met at work and started dating a few months later. He’s always been a kind, genuine person and honestly one of the sweetest people I’ve ever known. I love him deeply and I’m just very glad I get to spend my time with someone like him. we have so much in common that it’s hard for us to get into fights over disagreements but there’s one thing we don’t agree on.

He’s a HUGEE car guy. When we started dating, he started making side money buying cheap cars on Facebook Marketplace, fixing them (“flipping” them), and reselling them. I don’t have an issue with that but it’s just how much debt it puts him in.

A few months ago he bought an Infiniti. It was his dream car, but he bought it intending to flip it. But since he loved the car so much he started using it as his daily car especially after his main car broke down.

The seller never told him how bad the car actually was, so it eventually died completely. He didn’t have the money to fix and flip it anymore, so it sat in his garage for a while. This whole situation put him into pretty serious credit card debt as he tried finding people to buy the car from him while also trying to fix his original car. I kept gently advising him to stop flipping for a while because we’ve been planning to move in together after I graduated and both our parents have already approved but his rising debt really started to push that plan backwards.

Of course he’s the type that takes “don’t do that” as a challenge, so he kept trying to flip the car anyway. Surprisingly, he eventually fixed it and sold it, but barely made anything. It just added more debt. He already had a good full-time job paying $20/hr, so he didn’t NEED to flip cars. Eventually he chilled out and stopped for a bit, which honestly made me feel relieved because it meant moving in together might actually be possible again.

Yesterday he got off work early and picked me up. We grabbed food and had a cute date night. I told him I wanted to sleep over, and he said yes. But the moment we got to his house, he randomly started talking about flipping cars again. In my head I was like, “Please don’t start this again, your credit was finally doing well…”

But THAT wasn’t even the main problem.

He tells me that he wants to buy a really expensive car and put excessive stickers all over it for a “funny gag,” then resell it. I assumed he meant the silly joke stickers car guys use, so I just said okay.

Then he goes, “Instead of anime stickers like everyone does, I want to add stickers no one else has done before.”

So I asked, “Like what?”

He said: “Megan Fox.”

I was confused. I asked, “How is that a funny gag? You’d just have a beautiful woman all over your car.”

He said, “It won’t be my car. I’ll just drive it to a car meet once or twice and then sell it.”

I was already irritated. So basically he wants to drive around a car covered in pictures of another woman while having a girlfriend?.. oh but it’s fine because it “won’t be his car.”

I asked him if he didn’t think that was a bit disrespectful, and he said no because it’s “not technically his car.”

I started getting upset. Not only was he planning to go right back into flipping (which stressed me out to the max because of his debt and our moving plans), but he didn’t understand why the Megan Fox thing bothered me.

He kept insisting “people do it all the time” and said one of his friends has the Hulk all over his car. I told him that’s not the same at all. He said it is because “it’s just for car shows.” I asked why Megan Fox specifically, and he said it’s because we just finished rewatching Transformers and “she was the car girl so it would be funny.”

I said, “Why not put the Transformers themselves? Why Megan Fox?” He said it’s funny because “it’s a grown man driving a car with a cute girl all over it.” That’s hilarious apparently cause he started laughing

This pushed me over the edge. I told him that sure, maybe he thinks it’s funny, but the whole neighborhood, his friends, and family and he would have to post it on his social medias to promote it so literally everyone would see him with a car covered in what guys call “prime Megan Fox,” and it obviously looks disrespectful. I also asked him where he planned to get the money to buy another car and why this was worth going back into debt.

He just laughed the whole time, like my frustration was hilarious.

He started basically yelling at me saying, “Car guys do it all the time, they add stuff they like. And if you put stickers of the BTS boys all over your car, I wouldn’t care.”

I told him, “Well I’m not doing that. And just because you wouldn’t find it disrespectful doesn’t mean I don’t” I DO find it disrespectful.

He kept arguing, and I started tearing up because he wasn’t taking any of it seriously. He said I had posters of guys in my room, and it was the same thing. I said no, I have posters of MOVIES and BANDS with guys in them, not one single man I’m obsessed with plastered all over my walls and if I did it would be of him, obviously.

He still wasn’t getting it.

At this point it was almost 2am. I didn’t want him driving me home that late, so I stayed. We still slept in the same bed, but he didn’t notice I was sobbing. Or he did and didn’t care because he was just scrolling on his phone, laughing at videos, like nothing happened.

It’s the next day and he’s just texting me like regularly, sending me funny videos, telling me good morning and all that but I just want an apology or for him to at least acknowledge that I’m upset.

So… AITAH for not talking to him until he apologizes?
