Thanks. We've tried a few things that have brought some successes. After her 'one sided' fight last night my problem is really about how much anger/unpredictibility I can handle when we can't connect a lot intellectually.

I was pretty strict an hour ago. She came to talk and I said that I can't talk when she's all emotional (she gets that way when she starts her period...so I got a couple days to chill).

I'm having a real problem accepting an apology from her because I'm sure she meant much of what she said. She's been hinting to one theme or another about what she said all last week, so I guess I should have been ready for something. The 'I want to go for 6 months to find myself' and 'the M is hopeless' ideas I didn't expect...
