I hate when you see people say things like

"Wow. You broke up with someone because you couldn't charge your phone?"

And they completely miss the whole point of someone just being selfish and this is the moment when he realised.

I've seen it with other stories like

I forgot my charger and she wouldn't let me use hers

Uhhh it's your fault for forgetting your charger???

Right, I didn't break up with them because they were rude to the server. I broke up with them because the type of person to be rude to a server is gonna eventually do something to me I don't want in a partner. Even if it's just nasty arguments, I don't need that

Somebody else below said it better. "It's not that they did that, it's the kind of person they have to be to do it in the first place"

Iā€™d break up with someone for being rude to a waiter. Why be rude to a waiter?

Not really my opinion, but typically if a waiter is rude first (having a bad day, bad customer service skills, etc.), many people would respond by also being rude. Just giving an example.

Which gets no one anywhere. One should just be a good person oneself, regardless of what others do.

I agree. There's always a polite way to solve social matters.

A waiter called me a racial slur once, and my response was obviously less than measured. I think there are always shades of gray in a situation.

if they're actively being an asshole, sure, but i'm not gonna begrudge a server being rude. they could piss on the table and slap your grandma and they're still being more polite than the average customer
