under the boyfriend bus

When your boyfriend does something stupid that gets you in trouble. specifically at work. He does nothing to admit his guilt and lets you take the fall. He sits back and watches as your boss belittles you for a mistake he thinks you did. And when all is said and done there is no apology, yet he notices your upset. All that is said is "do you think you should be on antidepressants"
