Apparently, she’d located herself out of her car in front of a Target, which was around five minutes from their house.
He tried telling his wife that he wasn’t able to leave and help her, so she’d have to call someone to open up her window.
She proceeded to freak out at him, claiming it would cost too much money and that she didn’t have enough cash on her. She also accused him of being unreasonable.
Nevertheless, he stood his ground and stated his wife needed to figure it out before hanging up the phone on her.
If you couldn’t have guessed, she was furious once he later arrived home. The guy his wife called to help her with the window wound up charging her $150, and she was livid that he didn’t just lend a hand.
“I told her, point blank, ‘I’m done rescuing you from things you can easily handle. You need to stop acting like everything is a disaster,'” he revealed.
Since he said that, his wife has barely been speaking to him and acting like he’s the “villain.”
His brother took his wife’s side and believed he was too harsh; meanwhile, his mom thought he had a right to set some boundaries.
Regardless, with so much tension in their relationship now, he’s wondering if leaving his wife stranded like that was justified or made him a jerk.
Can you understand why he was focused on his son at the time, not his wife or her car? Should she be able to deal with these situations on her own as an adult?
