That is where I get hung up. I can always spot where I made a mistake afterwards, but I have a bad habit of pushing too hard and too far, even when our convos are going good I can wreck them by pushing for too much or trying to get her to agree to more than she is willing to give at the time. Just a month ago she was open to R talk, but I pushed too far, too fast and now she is completely closed off from that. I don't believe that she will not ever be open to it again, even though she says that is case. However, I could certainly push her to that point if I can't figure this out ahead of time.
