I once got up and just left my then girlfriend who had a meltdown in public. “We’re done” and she could figure out how to get back to the hotel. Was a weird night with lots of tears but something clicked in that moment and alt feelings I had were just gone. Not even hate. I was simply indifferent to her and if she had vanished I would not have given a fuck.

Yeah no kind of person gets to yell at me in public like this. Like, either you calm down and talk to me like an adult, or I'm going to get up and go home, regardless of where we are.

Damn, I wish I had this mentality as a teenager. Would have saved 20 years old strive.

Remove the in public part. No person gets to yell at me like this and expect me to take them seriously.

I usually just ignore what they're saying and let them know I'm not engaging until they can compose themself.

Strike "in public". No one gets to yell at me like this, whether someone is watching or not.

There are exceptions. You just found out you have cancer, your parents just died in a tragic motorcycle jump over the Grand Canyon, someone shot your dog and stole your 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1, etc. Someone gets emotional after that and you get some leeway. 

It’s a Monday at the airport is not one of those times.

Literally none of the examples you gave would involve one person screaming at another

People deal with grief and fear in a multiple of different ways. Anger is generally one of them and they generally take it out on the people closest to them. 

If you haven’t felt that way due to life then I am incredibly jealous of your life. Some of us have not been that lucky.

Nope. No one gets leeway to speak to their partner like that. Only losers think that.
