Well her bf came up to me and asked if he can HAVE the computer to give to my grandmother for her xmas present i said no that i needed it for harley’s xmas and he was like 60 i said no its been used once and its a 700 computer!!!!! so when I left he asked me to leave it there and I said you going to pay me atleast 200 and he was like sure and so I said okay right before i left he said he wasn’t so i took the computer pawned it off got 200 and finished harley’s xmas and now he keeps calling me asking me why I didn’t leave it there

I think your grandmother’s boyfriend is a jerk. He had NO right to ask you that… and for HIM to give it away as a Christmas present? Just because he’s a senior citizen doesn’t mean he is a good citizen. Jerks and losers get old too.
I would not be surprised at all if he sold the computer and kept the money for himself if you let him. Once you explained you really needed the money from the sale he should have apologized for asking for it in the first place.
He was incredibly rude, and I have to think that is a reflection of his overall character. He is a companion for your grandmother which is great, and hopefully she is wise enough not to put up with his shenanigans herself!
What do you think? Answer below!

I wouldn’t feel bad in the least. If he didn’t give you the money, then there is no reason why you should have left it there. This guy sounds like a cheap old moron. Don’t feel bad, you needed money for your baby’s xmas presents. A 60 year old guy can get his own presents for your grandma.
It’s your computer and your grandmother’s boyfriend is a piece of scum..
Don’t feel bad at all, you should even tell your grandma what he did..
No, you shouldn’t feel bad about it! You told him he could have it for $ 200 so the ball was in his court if he wanted it that badly. Do not feel bad about it. If he calls again tell him you needed the money for Harley for Christmas and since he didn’t want to buy it from you then you pawned it.
People are so darn greedy these days.
you shouldn’t feel bad, and you should avoid spending ANY time with her boyfriend unless someone else is with you. He is a jerk.
You need to protect yourself from him, he is untrustworthy. Unless your grandmother or someone else is with you, do not spend time with him.
You did the right thing.
maybe you can do extra credit work for him .no guilt ok?
I would not feel bad… he sounds like a jerk that was trying to take advantage of you. I am also inclined to think if your gramma knew the exact situation she would be embarrassed that her boyfriend asked this of you. Most grandparents would rather their grandbabies (or great-grandbabies) have the bigger Christmas than themselves… she would most likely understand why you needed to pawn it. IDK… I think you did what you needed to do & should not fret over it.
