I’ve heard of adults that were never disciplined as a child. This is the first time I’ve seen the results. A grown woman throwing a temper tantrum like a 4 year old. :eek: Why didn’t she simply didn’t go to the lake by herself? 
This should be required viewing before any marriage license is issued. 
He doesn’t seem like any sort of prize.
We have no idea how much he drives her to this.
I agree, they don’t need to be married. They probably bring the worst out in each other.
Guy is a clueless idiot.
Uhhh… no. He was being reasonable and she was throwing a fit. This is not behavior that someone FORCES you to engage in. Especially as an adult. This is a 30-year old woman. He is in no way responsible for her inability to control herself, no matter how annoying he might be.
It is pretty rare, in my opinion, that one spouse is totally evil and the other totally innocent when a relationship becomes dysfunctional. They usually feed off each other.
Her behavior does suggest someone who is very immature and has poor impulse control, but his reaction makes him seem like a bit of a jerk. I think for most people, if you’re furious about something and your spouse just laughs at you, it’s just going to make you angrier and more out of control even if you aren’t an immature brat.
Arguments within a marriage aren’t unusual. But regressing into a 4 year olds temper tantrum is… disturbing.
I get angry sometimes but my last temper tantrum was about age 9. My grandad calmly talked me through it and I calmed down. I felt so foolish afterward that I never did it again.
This is a fucked up relationship. he is talking to her LIKE A DADDY. And you are shocked that she acts like a little girl?
He knows what buttons to push to get her to be this way. He set up his phone and did it.
She isn’t any prize either. She should have fucking left him long ago.
yes she has issues and could probably benefit by seeing a doctor. But he is just a total douche and they don’t have any meds for that yet.
Somehow this is the man’s fault that the woman throws a totally immature shit-fit?
I disagree. You don’t know how long he’s had to put up with that shit. I’ve had, in the past, the misfortune of dating a woman as impulsive and immature as that, and when you have to deal with that kind of person day after day, eventually you stop giving a shit; it becomes a joke and all you can do is laugh (and leave). To an outsider, seeing this one incident at the very end of their relationship, sure, he’s being a dick, but if you were him, you’d understand.
I just hope they don’t have any kids.
Nooooo…but do you really believe this is the only time she did this? And he continued to let it happen, instead of leaving her right away. I’m not excusing her. I think they’re both crazy.
The mistake is thinking that her immature shit-fit was about not being able to go to the lake. It’s about his complete disregard for her feelings. She wanted to go to the lake on their one day together and he decided that they couldn’t because he needed to get the tires rotated on the truck. She wanted to get some cigarettes and he refused to pull over. She wanted to feel like she actually mattered to him and he laughed at her and recorded it.
Furthermore, what kind of man can’t rotate his own tires in the driveway in 20 minutes?
She has an interlock on her car (her stated reason for being unable to change her own oil). She’d need someone who could pass a breathalyzer. Presumably she was impaired enough not to be able to start the car or would not be able to drive herself home after her day at the lake.
This woman has severe issues with regulating her emotions. She said she was having a panic attack at one point and I doubt she was lying - her anxiety was probably contributing to her wild behavior. It’s not normal to have anxiety just because you don’t get your way. If I were her husband I’d have to put down an ultimatum, either she get the mental health treatment she obviously needs, or I leave.
But I don’t think the guy is interested in fixing the relationship. Obviously he has contempt for her because he posted this video. Someone sincerely interested in addressing this problem would not put her on the internet as an object of ridicule, because that of course only makes the situation worse.
Agree with Ana - they both have issues. And I’m pretty sure their relationship is doomed.
I agree he shouldn’t have recorded it, but as far as his filmed reaction, what else can we expect him to do? Would it have been better for him to scream right back, verbally abuse her, or just leave her on the side of the road? All he did was remain calm and reflect her own words and behavior back at her, which seems like a pretty mature way to handle such a situation.
If it was really about their time together, she needs to learn to articulate that and not behave like a four year old.
Ah, I see now. I didn’t understand the interlock reference. She’s got alcohol issues too.
I couldn’t.
Totally fake. I can tell by the pixels.
He should have avoided the situation by being more considerate in the first place. This isn’t some bizarre scenario that he happened to find himself in, she was mad at him, and he seemed completely oblivious to that.
For one, we don’t know what happened before he started recording; she may have tried to articulate it for like 20 minutes and finally blew up out of frustration. And if you’re saying that people should never blow up at their spouses out of frustration, I’d say sure, but have you met people?
That sounds like a really good lake!
