As said above, I didn't want to go into a confrontation with her and have her go loud at me (in the car). She'd probably start yelling how it's no big a deal (like she did after the crying part) and that I have to get used to 'life' or something like that.

After this texting yesterday I think I have a fair chance of being able to talk more rationally with her if any such situation arose again. (But I'd still prefer to not go in the car long distance with her lol)
