We got in a small fight over the weekend. The details aren't that important, but things are starting to get back to normal. I can tell she's still a little irritated/distant with me, but I'm guessing time will cure that.

I did feel, however, that she was being a little rude last night. We planned to see each other at 815pm. We agreed that if I finished my stuff early, I'd text her and we could see each other sooner. I finished at around 7pm and let her know. I didn't hear back from her until 945pm, when she called and said that she was chatting with a coworker for a couple hours. I understand getting caught up at work and all, but I feel like she should have at least given me a quick heads up earlier in the evening that the plans were changing.

I didn't bring it up last night since I know she's still a little irritated and I didn't want to make that worse. Do you think I should? Or since this is only a one time thing, I should just let it go?

If you want peace, let it go.

Sometimes it's just not worth it. Sounds like she's still a little bitter. My advice is to plan a weekend getaway.

Even if she wasn't giving you the silent treatment, she stood you up. If this is a very rare or isolated incident, I'd let it go. If she carries grudges, is regularly huffy for days over small arguments, stands you up without profuse apology or on a regular basis, etc., flee. The behavior will only get worse and worse.

Yeah, why is she still mad over a minor fight? He did leave out the details of the fight... possibly if he shared the cause of the fight her actions might make a little more sense.

I made an off-handed comment about how I thought it was weird that my roommates were hanging out with a couple female friends a lot (since I know one of the female friends is in a relationship) and mentioned that a lot of guys get attracted to their female friends. She thought I was being degrading to women, presumably thinking that I thought women were only for sex, or something along those lines. I apologized and explained that that's not what I meant at all. She said it was okay and that she believed me (although it's clear she's still a little irritated)

You had to apologize for that? AND she still mad?? Honestly, I think you need to have more backbone before she starts running over you...

So you're 19-20 years old I'm assuming. How long have you been with this girl?

I'm not saying dump her preemptively, but you're about to experience what it's like to date a crazy.

However, you need to grow a pair if you're apologizing for that kind of bs. I thought you actually did something wrong.

We're both 24. Been together about 4.5 months now.
