They took off on you and YOU feel bad? If they want to know why you're mad,tell them.
You did nothing wrong. You got abandoned! You have every right to be pissed.

ok...so apparently i missed key words like "yesterday" and "today". sorry about that! this all makes a lot more sense now.

have you asked them why they left you there? did they forget, or were they mad at you for something?

Words do tend to get lost in giant paragraphs and run-on sentences!*ahem*

You should figure out if they left you on purpose. If they did, then you have a right to be mad and ignore them. If they didn't do it on purpose, chalk it up to miscommunication and explain why you were ignoring them. Don't feel bad though; you had a valid reason to be mad, even if it was just miscommunication.

Are there more events you want to talk about, or is the title of this thread a bit of an exageration?!?!?!?

If you think leaving without giving you a ride is bad, I don't think it compares to ignoring someone or giving them the 'silent treatment'. That seems a little immature.

You've forgiven your partner, but do they even know? Do they know you were upset, and that you've not forgiven them? Because if all that has happened in your head, you're the only person that knows. Other people don't know what your thinking. So being childish and ignoring them when they try to talk to you just makes it more likely that next time they'll leave without you again.
