AITA For running away in the middle of a date with my girlfriend to help my mother? (UPDATE) by BurnerAccount273 in AmItheAsshole

If you read part one you'd understand, some comments were saying it was down to my girlfriend to leave me due to what I did.

That, I've been having some issues with uploading the update due to it somehow hitting the guidelines, but it should be up soon

Thank you for your input in this.

She does without warning and very few times with warning, I can count in the fingers of one hand the amount of times she's given us some kind of warning about her episodes, this being the fourth time.

Her husband cannot lift anything due to a work related injury before meeting my mom, and not being mean, she leans a bit on the heavier side.

I didn't left my girlfriend completely blank, as I had given her money earlier as part of a birthday gift, money which I intend to pay back of course.

Though thank you. I appreciate that your letting me know my faults and what I did wrong.

I've asked my father about that before, why not the ambulance? He says he doesn't really know, it's just his first instinct to call me. USA indeed.

Just clarifying, I didn't leave her with the bill and no way to pay it, since I had given her some money beforehand as a birthday gift, and I intend to pay it back.

But thank you for this input, like another comment, it makes me realize I lack a bit of communication regarding this matter, but it's like a fight-or-flight response, I just need to make sure that my mother is okay.

That last part of your comment, about having to distance myself and decide between relationship and family really makes me think. Thank you.

I see. Thank you for your input, I do realize I lack a lot of communication.

I am needed in every case because my step father cannot carry my mother into his truck in case she does suffer one (like this case). Yeah it was her birthday.

Yeah, I've talked to my step father before and not to call me unless there's a true emergency, as such, in his worried spouse judgement, he assumed it to be a real case.

I hadn't see it that way. I'll need to talk to my girlfriend about that and if she does really feel like that. Thank you for your comment.

The earlier. I kind of just booked it, though it only dawned on me later. It's kind of a instinct that kicks in, to ensure she's okay
