So I said "would you have just gone off to France then without talking to me about it"

What in the he11 is THAT about?
ETA: And yes, someone else CAN chill the atmosphere. There are two people in the room and each does not exist in a vacuum. I'm reminded of a Thanksgiving Dinner years ago at a beautiful restaurant where my mother got in a snit and when she was served complimentary champagne, she put a leaf of lettuce in hers and sat staring at the table without saying a word for the entire meal. Yeah, you can ignore that. But who wants to be AROUND it.
Trying to function around a moper is like my definition of living with someone who is depressed: "It's like trying to play with a dead dog. No matter how many times you throw that ball, the dog just won't run."
