Preguntas
You get to decide if your job is safe enough to continue or not. You are an adult capable of making those decisions on your own. I can understand discussing your employment with a husband, but a boyfriend has no say. Should he be upset that someone tried to kiss you? I don't think so. Should he be upset that you are upset? Yes, I would be. However, young men today are being trained to never impose their standards on the women in their life.
Uh, so forcibly touching you is battery. Sexual Assault charges are an enhanced form of a battery charge.
You were a victim of an actual serious crime and your boyfriend didn’t care. It also happened while working for an industry notorious for failing to protect drivers from this exact stuff until they are forced to via a court of law.
Anything less than making him an ex boyfriend is an under reaction.
NTA. I would be very hurt if something like that happened to me and my boyfriend treated it like no big deal. Worse could have definitely happened and I’m glad it didn’t but he should care more about you than the “good money.” I know it’s hard since you have been together for a while but I think it’s best you break up with him and definitely quit working for Uber either way. With all of the horrible things that have already happened to other Uber drivers, I wouldn’t take the chance. No amount of money Is worth you losing your life or facing something terrible but still living. He is an asshole and maybe he should Uber if the money is so good, I’m sure it’s safer for men as it is.
It is your life, not your boyfriend's. Do what you feel you need to do to protect yourself and to hell with what the bf thinks. I used to drive for both lyft and uber (mostly lyft) about 10 years ago. I enjoyed it and most of the people I gave rides to were good people.
However, there were some people ... not so good. I am also a 6' tall guy who weighed 250 pounds at that time. I wasn't really worried about my safety, but a woman late at night is another matter entirely. With all the crazies out there, I would have asked you to seriously think about things, before you accepted the job.
Good luck to you and stay safe.
NTA, I would be hurt if it seemed like my bf didn't care when something potentially traumatizing happened to me. But the last part is a little confusing, you're mad bc he doesn't want you to quit?
Does he work?
yes he does haha
NOR. Your boyfriend either has no understanding of the potential danger you could be in or he just doesn't care about you. I wanted to use a bit harsher language but I got one of those pop-up warnings telling me that I could insult people. If you do a simple Google search there are tons of instances where Uber drivers and Uber passengers have been assaulted, robbed, kidnapped, etc.
NOR. His reaction is weird. If I told my dad or my brother or literally any man in my life something like that, they’d be really upset and they’d beg me to stop driving at night. I used to drive for Uber Eats in the evenings/nights, and it always worried my dad. You should listen to your parents. Transporting strangers in your car in the middle of the night carries an implicit element of danger. Unless you absolutely have to do it for money, then you probably shouldn’t. Find a different overnight job.
You’re not overreacting. Someone physically grabbing you and trying to kiss you is assault, not a joke.
A caring partner’s first reaction should be Are you okay? and not emojis. The red flag here isn’t just that he wasn’t mad, it’s that he wasn’t worried. Laughing when your partner tells you they were scared is not normal.
Wanting you to keep the job because it pays well while dismissing your fear feels selfish. Your safety should matter more than the extra income
Are you not worried?
Are all your lights on? All the way to the top?
So what you’re saying is your boyfriend doesn’t have toxic masculinity he’s letting you be you and you live your life.
And making her work...
