Whos Wrong? Built up frustration explodes

[532mW]

Background:

Me and my SO work together and live together.

Every morning she makes me late 10-15 minutes

Administration has told me 2 times already in the not so recent past that i need to stop coming in late or i may get fired (was told this before she got a job also here)

So i come on time all the time then she gets the job and now im late practically every day.

Incident:


So this morning,

I'm ready and i'm like come on lets go. and she says i can't go look at this i got paint on my pants i got to clean it.

(she had 2 stripes of paint about 3mm thick 1.5 inches long)

I'm like alright just forget about it u can cover it up with a sharpie at work or put another pair of pants on.

She says she can't the other pants smell and she cant go to work like this.

So she goes and sits down trying to fix the pants for a good 10-15 minutes

meanwhile im practically begging her just to put them on or something else and lets go.

She keeps telling me no. and just go without her in an angry tone.

So in a fit of rage i push her bookcase down (3ft tall) yell "I HATE YOU"

and leave.

As i'm driving down the street i see her come outside so i do a U-Turn and she gets in the backseat and comes to work.

I'm sure i overreacted but it was a lot of built up anger from being late for the past 90 days every day but what do u guys think.

The bookcase was wrong. What was it thinking?

Please break up with her before you smack her next time, and then punch her the time after that. Seek anger management help.

Um, why haven't you figured out the correct solution yet? You leave when you need to. If she's not ready, she drives herself separately.

Seriously, how do people not have common sense?

Wow the "I HATE YOU" part was good. Sounds like you're a fun fighter OP, I like that.

Just go without her. I've been in this position before. Trust me, you go without her a few times and she'll get her act together.

the problem is i always drive fast to make it on time and if she was to leave after me she would get to work 45 minutes late. And i feel bad about doing that.

One more thing - if she starts bitching about it, you sit down and talk it out. If she still has so little respect for you that she continues to be late and tries to make you wait for her, kick her to the curb.

Is she over 18? Then she's "an adult" and needs to be responsible for herself. If she can't do that with something as simple as getting to work, then she's going to have serious problems with bigger responsibilities later in life. Best to work this out now.
