Why won't you call me back?

So this video has been making the rounds for the past couple of days.

Cliffs Notes version: Guy tells girlfriend he's going on vacation for two weeks, keeps phone off to avoid roaming charges, girlfriend forgets/never listened, so doesn't know guy is gone. She then proceeds to leave various email messages as the days go by, escalating in level of insanity.

Some people are saying the story's fake, I think it's plausible.

It probably wasn't a very healthy relationship, anyway...

• She never listened enough to him to know he's going to be gone.


• He didn't even bothered to call her to let her know he landed safely.


• At no point did she wonder about his safety, like maybe he couldn't respond to her because he was injured, hospitalized, etc.--That would have been my first thought, if I were in her position.


• That she jumped to only one conclusion (that he dumped her) meant one of three possible things, in my estimation:
  
  1. She was too insecure.
  
  
  2. She was too self-centered.
  
  
  3. The relationship was in a bad enough place that she believed he would dump her at any time.

Ultimately, they are both better off that the relationship ended. Some people wonder, as do I, if she really slept with someone else, or if she only said that to spite him... but it doesn't really matter.

Some people have also been wondering about the songs used in the video. I recognize two of them from the soundtrack of the movie Snatch. Anyway, I'll embed them below:

By the way, if you haven't seen Snatch, you totally should.
