The Only Person I Know Who Carries More Guilt Than I Do

Tom called this afternoon to tell me some girl hit his car. It wasn't anything bad but it was clearly her fault which she refused to recognize. They exchanged phone numbers and moments later she called him. After turning around and going back through the intersection she realized it was, in fact, her fault. So what does she offer to do?
1. Contact her insurance?
2. Pay for the damages/settle it out of insurance?
3. Take him out for ice cream?

Yep 3. And what does Tom do?

1. Get her insurance information?
2. Ask her for money for the damages? (Which I wouldn't either for something so minor)
3. Go eat ice cream with her and her friend.

Yep 3.

Now none of this is something I have a problem with except for the fact of how thee story was told to me.

Young girl-Hits Car-Ice cream date-

Lucky for me I am the furthest thing from the jealous type but I found this situation extremely rare/weird/funny.

So I ask how he came to the conclusion that he should have ice cream with her and he says "She felt really really bad." "So then I felt really really bad." "And I couldn't let come complete stranger out there think I was mad at her"

I guess I should be happy she didn't invite him to her bed, because shit we all know you have to do what you have to do so complete strangers don't think you are mad at them.
