Honestly, I think they kind of deserve each other. He seems like the type of dude who takes a blue pill with every meal. It's also the modern relationship reduced to a short video:

Guy goes way out of his way to please girl.
Girls shits all over him.
Guy conceals his own emotional devastation and goes ever further to please girl.

To top it all off, her own emotional outburst takes center stage, effectively coopting his infinitely more legitimate pain over the dismissal of his effort to make her happy. Looking back on my own relationships, I'd say girls pull that shit all the time. They hurt you, then manipulate you into comforting them for it. It really is all kinds of ridiculous.

What I enjoyed most was the comments defending the girl in the vein of “look she was crying and she clearly feels bad.” Lazy hypothesis: like many mammals Homo sapiens have adapted/learned to react to the crying of conspecifics which stimulates feelings of empathy and concern as a response to their (the former’s distress). In the case of a woman, crying becomes a skilled defense mechanism (though this already appears in children generally). By triggering (not in the SJW lexicon) the core suite of emotions bound around said trigger (which I think fits in with neuroscientist Antonio Damasio’s “somatic marker hypothesis” ***) via crying the female like the child getting caught with his/her hand in the proverbial cookie jar deflects the anger, criticism or negative appraisal that would befall them after making a mistake, failing or in this case being offensive and thus shifts the context to focus on her as the victim in need of comfort. The blue pill man is easily deceived and often will move into protector mode without even realizing it despite his justified anger in the previous event.

***Here is an early paper on this thesis of Damasio’s. It is also interesting for anyone curious about emotional responses and evolutionary behavior. http://www.google.be/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CDUQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.iee.unibe.ch%2Funibe%2Fphilnat%2Fbiology%2Fzoologie%2Fcontent%2Fe7493%2Fe7854%2Fe8920%2Fe8926%2FDamasioPhilTransRSocB96.pdf&ei=iTQ8Va_fHdPpaMnvgegC&usg=AFQjCNGSmHolAy_W9kF6qEXkBT-qNUiylg&bvm=bv.91665533,d.d2s

This makes me so angry. You fucking hipposlutamus you're lucky anybody is asking you to the prom!

My immediate reaction would have been "get the fuck out of my car".
