I have been sympathizing with the idea that I should have known and not tried so hard to be who I wasn't It was just a defense mechanism so I'd fit in. I don't think you're too harsh, her anger is justified, and I think me and her might start over just talking about the things that happen. When she strikes out it's like she's a different person, like she's melting down in her own way.

Glad you're seeing things from her side a bit- as I said, I'm not trying to justify everything she's done.

I'm still a bit confused as to how you think you'll talk through this though; she wants a sexual relationship and you're assexual, and you say you don't even like her as a person? Good luck anyway if you do try to make a go of things.

She probably is, but as Graewlyn pointed out in another thread, it is possible to learn to control meltdowns to a certain degree. I don't suppose it makes a huge difference, but when she's angry is she actually aiming for you or just lashing out around her in general?

It seems as if since she knows I'd never leave her she could just let her anger out on me and i wont fight back. but I did so now I bet it will be better. I am going to talk to her in person today and we just need to vent this all out. Thanks everyone. I like being told I'm wrong when I am so thank you Lene.
