Hopeful - I am not sure how a face to face would go since we both have a history of interrupting one another. I wouldn't want this to escalate into a disagreement of some sort. I figure if I write, even though it's not as communicative and speaking in person, that she can more easily digest what I am trying to say and I can do a lot less stuttering and stammering and fidgeting. Maybe we can have a follow up face to face after this - but that would take some time.
