AITAH My (20F) boyfriend (20M) is calling me a "cheater" because I fell for a modeling scam. How do I handle this?
I’m feeling really lost right now. I recently saw an online modeling gig offering 500 usd and, thinking it was a great opportunity, I signed up. I sent over my standard photos and the physical measurements they required (height, bust, waist, etc.).
It turned out to be a scam. I feel stupid enough as it is, but my boyfriend’s reaction has made it ten times worse. He didn't just get frustrated; he shouted at me and told me I "don't even have a brain" for falling for it.
Now, he’s claiming that I "low-key cheated" on him because the person on the other end of the scam was a man, and I sent him my photos and body stats.
I thought I was applying for a professional job, not a dating site. Is this actually cheating, or is he overreacting? I’m hurt and I don't know how to fix this.
