Looking back at your past relationships, how have you been a ****ty boyfriend?

I was reminiscing about past romantic playthroughs, as I usually do because playing IRL in single player mode tends to keep you stuck on certain levels, and realized I was a pretty ****ty ass boyfriend to "the one that got away". What's worse is that I actually thought I was a good boyfriend because we just almost never fought about anything, so I took that as indicative of a healthy relationship. She was, however, one of the most patient angels I was unaware of having met.
One of the more memorable moments I'm hung up on that I look back on in disgust is this one time where she was driving to my house and her car broke down in the middle of the street late at night by the 7/11 that was a 5 minute walk from my house, or a 2 MINUTE DRIVE from my house. She called me with concern in her voice, almost trembling, saying she needed help pushing her car off the street. I told her to put it in neutral and push it to the side then to call a tow truck or something. I'm so ashamed to say that she complied with what I said in the sweetest and most understanding "okay" I've ever heard. The reason I didn't want to go and help was because I was ****ing playing ranked Gears of War.....can you believe that ****? What's worse, is that I justified my decision by telling myself that she's a grown woman and should be able to handle it herself...man, if I could go back and kick my ass....Luckily some stranger was kind enough to help her get it off the street. She then proceeded to wait for both her dad and the tow truck all while she was texting me at home...2 minutes away. I've reflected and grown as a person since then, but man I still can't believe how ****ty that was of me.
