Just remembered a story from three years back. I was living about half an hour from the girlfriend and wanted to surprise her when I arrived for the evening with the most romantic of gifts: lube. I told her I'd be there in about 45 minutes and figured that would be enough time to run into a sex shop and get something. Unfortunately I was unfamiliar with the ones in the area, so I ended up spending the next two hours getting lost and looking around for one that was open. In the meantime, I was ignoring her calls because I was avoidant at the time and didn't want to tell her what it was that I was doing or why I was late (because it was a surprise). When I finally showed up at her house, she told me she was waiting in her room, and when I went in there, she was angrier than I had ever seen her before. She immediately started slapping my face and asking me where I had been. Then she started crying, and slapped me some more, because she seriously thought I had died on the way there, which was the only explanation for why I hadn't returned her calls. When I finally showed her what I had gotten her, she smiled and called me a dumbass, but then slapped me again and said if I ever treated her like that again she'd break up with me. Then she kissed me but bit my lip so hard it bled. Of course, I spent the next year of that relationship being just as unreliable and inconsiderate, over and over again. Women will seemingly put up with things forever but of course everyone has their limits.
