When she starts talking about your failures and why the marriage was so horrible, much of which is probably true, she is waiting for you to react in anger, hurt, frustration, and let you say horrible things to her, blame her for everything and storm out of the house because this is the type of behavior that validates her thoughts, expectations and rationalizations for walking away. Such behavior will make her feel better. When you DON’T act like this, it will throw her for a loop and she will be completely bewildered. Try it.
I just remembered that she made another comment about how much better I am socially now. Being so busy with grad school, I got very absorbed in my own interests. Now that I work with "normal" people every day, it's different. And I'm glad she sees that.
