Did you remember to say I understand why you feel that way? Or did you get defensive and continue the R talk?
I'm not sure it's such a set-back as you think it is. She is giving you insight into her doubts, that's a big thing and you should stay focused on that.
Michelle, you're exactly right! After this weekend, it's clear that this wasn't really a set-back. More on that later...
It was frustrating, because all I can say is "I can see why you feel that way, and I'm sorry". Her response: that's not good enough. It's like she wants me to be punished, and I can understand that.

That's a great perspective, I can see that happening already. Thanks!
