Woman asks boyfriend to pick up her medicine because she's too sick to go out, boyfriend makes a big deal about it so she does it instead: 'I don’t know if I’m expecting too much or if this is a real issue I should address'

We all know about the famed five love languages, but the one you hear about the least is acts of service. Basically, 'acts of service' boils down to this: you perform chores for your partner without them asking you to do them to alleviate a bit of stress in their life. Sometimes this can be a very nice gesture, like taking your partner's car to get the oil changed on a whim. It can get a little muddy when you're just performing the chores you're supposed to do for general household upkeep, but that's another story. If you're a true 'acts of service' person, it is a surefire way to make your partner feel seen and cared for.

Because acts of service require a good amount of time, effort, and sometimes financial responsibility, it can really sting if someone can't reciprocate the efforts you give to them. One woman experiences this when she asks her boyfriend to go to the store to pick up her medicine, and he seemingly cannot do it for himself. So, is she right to think this was a simple task and basic human decency? Or was it truly too much to ask? Read on to see what you think.
