The simple fact of the matter is...
If your partner rings you up whilst you're on a night out with your friends, saying he/she's been attacked, you should do your utmost to come to their aide, regardless of whether you're with the lads/girls. If your friends give you stick for this, they are wankers too. If you do not believe this to be the case, it's probably why you're single. It has fuck all to do with equality, it's just plain good grace

We've only heard one person's side of it - for all we know, she's pulled a stunt like this before, looking for attention. I mean, "Are you using this to see me?" doesn't sound like the kind of thing you'd just come out with out of the blue. Suggests there's more to this than meets the eye.

It all depends on context, how it was said, previous and subsequent actions. There's not enough here to judge. But... kill a relationship over a single comment? Ladyintheradiator can make that call as she sees fit, but everybody else who has made that determination based only on the initial short post... hope you're as perfect in your dealings with your own significant other at all times as you expect LITR's guy to be when he's having a good time with his friends and gets this kind of totally unexpected call.
