If my wife breaks something on the car, she knows it's coming out of OUR bank account. There's no "you pay, I pay". But that's just me..

Girlfriend. I think it's implied that I'm paying for these repairs, too

Again, curb rash isn't everyday wear and tear. Accidents happen, it's just disappointing to curb nearly new wheels. I was perturbed but the comments here have been light so it has been pretty helpful.

You have a way of trying to not be condescending. These are all first world problems, things aren't that serious, and life goes on.
An old beater would be ok to bang around and curb check. I spent the extra money to have something nicer ... that's BMW ownership. All factors compounded, I think a man with curbed rims should be allowed to vent. I'm feeling a lot better after reading some comments. I also had an ex-wife wreck my Infiniti 15 years back, and another ex totaled our Sequoia. The curb rashed wheel seems pretty insignificant with a different perspective, LOL.
