Here is the deal. Sometimes I get offensive toward W as in "Why is she acting like this" and actually hold a grudge and project resentment toward W. I am having trouble detaching in a healthy way. My way of detaching is getting upset with the way she treats me and just say "whatever" tricking myself. When I try any other approach I get attached and allow her words and action affect me to the point I get let down or my feelings get hurt.

While I was gone I read what you all had to say and realized I handled what happened earlier in the wrong manner and allowed my buttons to be pushed. I don't think it was an instance where she was trying to push my buttons, I think I was so upset that she was not going that I was nearly lashing out at her by being a jerk in a way.

When I returned W was still sleeping, she woke up and said her stomach was upset. W then asked who won the game and I said "It was a great game, you would had enjoyed yourself." If I'm not mistaken she may have rolled her eyes.

We then talked about the dog and she went back to sleep...
