Relationships are an investment and it takes years to build a good one. But for this one person, his investment showed well on the excel spreadsheet that he created to document each and every penny that he spent on his girlfriend.
He decided that he was going to track everything that he spent on his girlfriend with a spreadsheet... right down to the last penny. And well everything about this story is now viral on TikTok.

The lad's ex-girlfriend, Maddy, subsequently took to TikTok to share either his sheer misery or very detailed organizational skills (depending on your opinion).
She overlayed the video with the caption: "When my ex-bf charged me $3 for a banana and a piece of toast and sent me monthly excel spreadsheets of the money I owed him and I had no idea that's not how normal relationships worked."
This was accompanied by the song lyrics: "I remember when I lost my mind."

It features a pretty glum-looking Natalie, and a little digging showed that this viral video was a follow-up to an earlier one where she went into detail about the spreadsheet itself (and provided evidence of one).
Maddy explained that all the spreadsheets were created on monthly basis and also color-coded to make it easy for her to see what she owed to her ex.

"He would send me about one of these a month and as you can see he was nice enough to colour code it," she revealed.
"That was great and then at the bottom of this - I think it got cut out - would be the total."
She stated at the beginning of the video that she won't ever allow a romantic interest to treat her like this these days.
Well, the video has gone viral on TikTok for reasons fairly obvious and people couldn't help but express shock over her ex's behavior.

"Splitting major (bills, groceries, vacations, etc) expenses while living together is completely reasonable for two working adults," remarked a second. "But asking you to pay for a banana & a toast is super weird."
A third joked: "It's like you're living in a hotel and these are your mini bar charges."
"Prayers and condolences to all impacted," remarked a fourth while a fifth added: "The biggest ick of all time."
