She took off like a jackrabbit when it came to calling the insurance companies. She is impatient and it has to be handled NOW. I could have wrestled the ball from her, but she would have not given up control, and let me handle it in my own way. The dynamic exists for reasons beyond a lack of assertiveness on my part. I would have been happy to make phone calls.
That sounds reasonable to me. Our free advice is just that, and sometimes lacks the deeper perspective you have. Sometimes an objective third party is good, on the flip side we don't know everything about you and the fine points of your relationship.

I'll admit that I was remiss in offering my assistance, to see if she wanted to shift responsibillity to me.
Offering assistance is good, shifting responsibility to you, not so good. If she took it, then she can run with it. Hope that makes sense. I may not be effectively elaborating.

I countered that I didn't see other options to advocate for. It was a situation she was going to have to adapt to.
Fair and reasonable. She herself could have presented options. She can solve her own problems, you could support her, and I believe you would have.
