So I let my girlfriend borrow my car for a few hours and when she dropped off my car she told me she accidentally ripped my drivers seat with her purse! I was super mad but kept my cool. Im just wondering how I can fix this. Anyone know how? This is what she did to my drivers seat :(

Ouch. I think no matter how good someone is at fixing leather, it's going to show up. Maybe she should buy you a new used seat from a wrecker?
 
Got a shovel? Just kidding...

In all seriousness, you might want to check with a dealership or someone who makes leather seats for cars about getting it fixed/replaced; I doubt that you'll find too many of those cars in junkyards. Another cheap option is to get seat covers, if possible. No matter what you choose to do, make her pay for it!
 
Cal an upholstery shop
 
I am a girl and carry a purse and for the life of me I can't figure out how a purse did that.... does it have sharp objects on it? o_O

Anywho that stinks, hope you can get it fix. I would look for maybe a car upholstery person or something, that's what we used when I worked at Audi to fix interior issues.
 
Is it real leather? I find it hard to imagine leather tearing that easy. If it is an artificial leather then it can be welded and seamed with a colored filler, if it is leather all you can do is live with it or cover patch it. sorry dude
