If you would have just replied by allowing her to apologize, first, and then just say, "It's okay. Glad you are feeling better. You are stronger than you give yourself credit". Then, if she asks how or what you mean.....you could expound more. You salt the conversation a little and if you spark her interest...she will want you to say more. Can you tell when she's fishing for more?
Next time, just don't try to give it all in one setting. Otherwise, she will think the only reason you are saying any of this is b/c you're trying to get her back.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
