I think whichever fashion sense you have or taste in entertainment, it would really more be about "are you basically a good person? are you decent?" more than that.
Although yeah, if she's kind of a bitch or not being fair to people by sponging off of them, then yeah. She could be doing better. But if she isn't, and she's still paying the bills and is a decent person, he's being a fucking dick. Granted, she did throw a drink in his face. I'd probably lose my shit and start criticizing at that point too.
I know I would, I've mentally courted doing worse things to my ex in a confrontation although I've also rejected them because it wouldn't really be fair and I'd go to jail anyways. Just not worth it.
I'd call her out on her bullshit, though. She's never even really told me why. Not why we had to break up, not why me being an hour away when she briefly seriously planned to be HOURS away, nothing. I would have cut off my own foot at that point. I told her everything. We told each other everything.
And nothing. I don't even know why. I probably never will at this point.
Which is part of why I sometimes get really angry about it and want to gouge her eyes out, but of course that's useless and unrealistic and unfair.
