Motorcycles are dangerous, everybody knows that. In fact, that’s the reason why so many people think it’s hot to ride a motorcycle. There’s something about the complete lack of self preservation, danger, and rebellion that we feel when looking at a guy on a bike. But there’s a line that can be crossed when it’s no longer cool and rebellious to be on a bike and it’s simply dangerous, scary, and reckless, especially when it comes to your teenager. One Redditor, a motorcyclist and part-time bad boy, recently learned the hard way what happens when you cross that line, potentially ruining his relationship and setting up a teenaged girl for a lifetime of biker guy fetishes.
The man recently posted on AITA, wondering if he was being a jerk to his girlfriend (whom he was about to move in with). She had asked him to pick up her 14 year old daughter after school and he happily obliged, not specifying that he would be picking her up on his motorcycle. OOF.
The man was excited about a potential bonding moment with the teenaged girl, considering they were just about to move into his house, and he took it upon himself to load her up onto his motorcycle without the mom’s explicit permission, going on a nice little joyride in the mountains before returning home. When the girlfriend found out later that evening, she was absolutely livid that her teenager was on the back of the motorcycle, scorching the Earth where the man stood for endangering her daughter. Shocked, the man wondered if he might have screwed things up with his girlfriend and, in Reddit’s opinion, he certainly screwed the pooch on this one.
