My (27M) girlfriend (25F) and I often go on road trips together. No matter how many times I suggest using our smartphones and navigation apps, she says she has fantastic "inbuilt GPS" skills. The reality is that we end up taking wrong turns, getting lost, or late to our destination almost every time.
So, recently, we went on a trip to a national park three hours away. She insisted on navigating. Midway through, we were lost once again, which led to a lot of frustration for both of us.
When I brought up using Google Maps or something, she goes off on how tech can't always be trusted, and she loves figuring out roads like a puzzle. By this point, I was fed up, and I told her that her navigational skills were awful and got us lost every single time. She got super upset and said I was demeaning her abilities.
AITA for being real about her navigational skills?
