Thanks Burt. I am kind of struggling to find what works. She had been engaged for a couple of days til I did something she didn't like for 30 minutes. Now, punishment. She is so angry, poor thing. I have to let her feel what she is going to feel. That is one of the things we discussed in MC. She needs me to accept whatever mood she is in. I haven't done good at that. I have tried to change or fix her. I thought for good reasons, but maybe I was just trying to get my needs met. Anyway, she wants to be angry, be angry. I am going to do what I believe to be right.

I am glad I was honest about why I called. She was free to reject or accept me. She chose in that moment to reject me. Her loss. I learned something from the exchange.
