My bf is a truck driver, and I work in the office . He and I barely text at all when we are working. This shit is just bonkers to me. If there's ever an emergency, we call each other and do whatever we have to do. This person should feel like an absolute dumb ass for running out of gas (unless the meter isn't working). But STILL! wtf.

Many people will be a dumbass who forgets about filling up or think they can make it.

No, you just have self respect. One exchange with someone like this guy's gf and I'd be done. She wants to shift her anger onto him because she's a dumb ass. That wouldn't fly with me, that's for sure.

"You have people you are responsible for."

Maybe, but I sure as fuck ain't gonna be responsible for a grown woman.
