"Bought bad stock to prove to my GF I wasn't cheap"

I'm always interested in what drives atrocious investing. This was a new one to me:

"After being with her 24/7/365 for 2 years, I couldn't think straight anymore, because she took over my entire life, it wasn't just her nagging about me being cheap, it was her overall toxic personality. She would not allow me any free time to study stocks myself, even though I asked her multiple times, her answer would be "Oh, so now you don't love me and don't want to spend time with me?" That was what she thought, even if I were to try and read about stocks in her presence, in the same room, I guess anything that even momentarily took the focus of her was forbidden.

This ended up in an effort to prove that I wasn't cheap, so I went all in in GPRO and ended up losing lost it all. I was after a quick score, or to at least retain my initial investment. "
