Alcohol has a way of lowering people’s inhibitions and making them say or do things they’d usually keep in check. But when those moments end up hurting someone else, is it the drink to blame—or the person who chose to keep drinking?
One woman agreed to be the designated driver for her boyfriend and his friends during their night out. She didn’t mind at all—until she arrived to pick them up and her boyfriend started acting like a complete jerk. Hurt and uncomfortable, she quietly went home, leaving the group without a ride.
Once the guys realized what happened, a messy drama followed. Read the full story below.

I wonder if the proper reaction to gaslighting is turnabout. She could have claimed that she DID drive him home. And when he protested she should have replied "The only reason I would have left and not driven you home would have been if you said something deeply inappropriate and hurtful to me. You said you did not, which means that ergo I must have driven you home. It's not my fault you were too drunk to remember..."
I would have done the same as her. The fact these idiots couldn't work out how to order an Uber/taxi shows that they were way drunker than they thought they were. Thank the gods she moved on.
