I spent a lot of time in the car with my long time gf this holiday weekend. Typically I drive just out of habit, but she offered to on a particular hour long stretch. She spent the entire trip doing 73 in the left lane. When I mentioned that she could get over to let traffic around, she just asserted that she was going faster than those on the right and would just have to get back in the left lane soon. I had no words. No pics, but would you really want them knowing what you now know?

Do I just pack my shite and leave or is there a way to fix this?

Ask her how she feels about the zipper merge.

She and my wife drive alike. I just close my eyes and hope for the best.

I cussed about a 100 people who were doing this. Scared the frick out of them too with immediate passing at dangerously close distances. Every time I would put the turn signal on and get back into the right lane...just to show the WTF to do. I think it worked in several of them.

Yes Chad, and I would give anything to take it back. Ignorance truly is bliss.

You cannot fix that proprietary attitude. She will exhibit that same mindset in other areas soon. You need to hit the gas and move on.

1. Never let a woman drive. Even if Ive had a few drinks its safer for me to drive.

2. All women are bad drivers. Not worth dumping her over that.

Simple answer: either dump her or never let her drive on the interstate again.

You know two things:

1) Letting her drive again isn't an option.
2) This isn't a problem if you follow rule #1.

That’s odd, she usually just spends her time as a passenger when we take the td.com motor coach. She just likes to ride.

I actually agree with this. This is an attitude of pure entitlement and selfishness with literally zero regard for other people. People who camp in the left lane like that should be sent to prison and buried under the jail. They are among the lowest forms of scum in our society.

Let me guess. Your girlfriend is originally from Texas.

Sit her down this evening to have a heart to heart. During the heart to heart, you explain that something is truly bothering you that needs to be discussed and the outcome of this discussion determines the path of your relationship.

You then proceed to tell her that you were taught at a young age by your father that people driving in the left lane on an interstate without regard for passing drivers are the spawn of Satan and deserve to be waterboarded, dismembered, then set on fire until there is nothing left but a pile of ashes. Next you explain that your current feelings for her are true and you do not want to imagine a life without her, but how she responds will determine the path for your two lives.

She can either learn from her mistake, or proceed in life without TheDrunkenTigah. Her choice.

This was your first mistake. NEVER let a women drive. You basically tried to commit suicide.

Seems as if you failed to mention how it was ILLEGAL to do this. Maybe instead of mentioning, next time just tell her
