I don't have all the answers. I have a few. I didn't read this before the meeting. Wish I had.

She came over earlier than expected. I tried to prepare by review materials on listening and validating. Started off good. I had no agenda, no plan of what I wanted to say. Trying not to seem manipulative.

Listened. Asked questions. Stated some things directly. Got accused of manipulation. Got defensive. I believe every time I state my opinions she tells me I am manipulating.

Frustrated. Then, because I felt like I wasn't being heard, I guess I did start to manipulate. More and more. She left in a huff. Now says we will not meet without 3rd party.

Admitted to knowing what's right but doesn't want to leave OM.

I am so ticked I am dizzy.

I'll try to post more later but I just can't think right now.
