Ang sinasabi ko lang naman ay dapat nag-effort yung kasintahan niya na sunduin siya dahil ALAM NG LALAKI NA PUPUNTA YUNG KASINTAHAN NIYA SA CLUB AT MALAMANG GAGABIHIN NG UWI. Dahil sa kawalan ng initiative ng lalaki manundo "kasi may pasok pa siya eh" or "kasi may exam pa siya eh", napahamak tuloy ang babae. HE HAD THE CHANCE AND THE ABILITY TO DO IT BUT CHOSE NOT TO.
Now if the situation were that the BF told her GF NOT TO GO OUT, and she still went out WITHOUT HIM KNOWING, then went home inebriated and started stripping in the taxi, then I can say na di nga kasalanan ng BF yun dahil he didn't allow her to go yet tumakas pa rin siya. BUT since may basbas ng BF, then all the blame falls on him. He had the chance to prevent something bad from happening to her at least sa paguwi, but chose to sleep over it instead. Kung gusto may paraan, kung ayaw maraming dahilan.
May mga tao siguro na attitude talaga nila sa buhay is "bahala na", or que sera sera. I'm not about to tell you what to do with your life, pero if you really care about the people who matter most for you, please take the initiative and the extra effort to protect them and make sure they are always safe. Trust me, they would always appreciate it and will only strengthen your relationship with them.
