Yes. I'm glad you had a good conversation. It does help to clear the air to get some of the garbage out from under the rug. I always imagine that I'm living in one room with an 8 foot ceiling, and as the problems swept under the rug get bigger, the room gets smaller. Until we are lifted about 6 feet in the air by the lumps under the rug, and we are bumping our heads on the ceiling. That's when you think the problems are so big that you just need to move to a new room.
In the future avoid showing your hand, such as quoting TM's back to her. There are no points to be won in the game. It's a matter of learning to work together, not be the only one who is right.
