Input: So, I’m a student and I also work in a very popular store in my country, which means I don’t work there everyday. 

One day, my boyfriend and I were just chilling at his place, doing things like watching videos and stuff. Then he tells me that his stomach hurts (this happens from time to time and we don’t really know what the reason is yet) so he goes to the bathroom and comes up again a while later. He sits down and tells me that it hurts A LOT in the lower parts of his belly before he just kinda leans backwards in his chair. I thought this was because he was just showing how bad it hurt, but he wasn’t giving me any answer when I talked to him.

Me: Ouw.. does it hurt that bad? 

BF: *Doesn’t say anything, still leaning backwards in his chair, I can’t see his face*

Me: Hey BF... you ok?  

BF: *Still quite and starts to slide down his chair*

Me: BF???!

He slides down to the ground and I try to catch him so he doesn’t slam into the floor. He had passed out. I had never seen anyone pass out in-front of me before, it was so scary, so I panicked and yelled for help, thinking he was dying. 

Thankfully he woke up a bit later, after his sister had come as well to see what was happening. We took him to the doctor and we were there for SO many hours, until 2 am, for them to say that there was nothing wrong. I had work the next morning, but I didn’t leave the hospital while my BF was there to get it checked since I had been the only witness to him passing out. 

I was so scared and still felt shaken afterwards, in the morning I told my work I wasn’t coming in that day. I wanted to look over my boyfriend to make sure that he was okay, everyone else was going to work in the house so I wanted someone to be there. And honestly, I couldn’t stop thinking of the moment he was passing out either, if I was at work that day I just wouldn’t be able to focus.

I later told my parents about this and both of them thought I was wrong to not go to work that day. That it wasn’t a good enough reason and that I should’ve went anyways. And it made me cry hearing them say that, my mom who is really nice and usually thinks like me didn’t even agree with me. I still believe I was right. But I just want to know.

Was it a dick move of me to skip work for my boyfriend that day? 

(Also, let me add that I’m a great worker. They - as in my boss - have told me how good I am at my job and I very rarely call in sick.)
