2Step, yea you are right about that 180 on being stern.
I dont know how to articulate this properly, but everytime i have conversations like this i feel that if i am stern, she will end up getting upset and then just increase her resentment towards me even more. That defeats the whole purpose of trying to improve our relationship(or whatever is left of it). But yes i do understand that right now my relationship with my daughter is the most important and i need to keep that as priority #1 and everything should be worked around it. If that means that i become enemy #1 in my wife's eyes, i guess there's not much i can do to help it.
Sometimes i am just surprised that how she can actually justify all these as correct to her own self. She can lie to me. But how can she lie to herself?
Last week was rough. I just really need to divert her questions to my lawyer now so that i will not find myself on this boat again.
