Make sure all your battery connections are clean then. If it happens again, take your battery to get tested. If the battery turns out to be okay, get your electrical system checked.
It's worth it because there's not much worse than being on the road and have an electrical problem that you can't trouble shoot. Especially when your girl is sittin beside you lookin all sexy and you're on your way home with her!

LOL...as of not too long ago I only have the driver's seat in my civic...and even if she was in the car, she's used to me getting out to push start that damned thing... As far as the battery goes...right now I'm 100% positive it isn't the battery...

try to jump start it... if you can. its deffinatly the battery. you might also have a dirty connection. after awile build up from the transfer gets too much and gets in the way. its easy to clean with a hard brittle brush.

I clean battery posts every time I change my oil...and I swapped out the battery for the one from my van and it's still doing the same thing...and the van starts fine
