6 Unfortunately, I cannot do any overt peace offering because it seems that no matter what gesture I do that is out of the ordinary, seems to trigger her. I am doing NC and being pleasant when she contacts me. Hopefully by next week she will calm a bit. Idk whether she will contact me by text at all or when or if she will call at all but if she does I will certainly be friendly.
Do you get why this is a fact?
You are a lawyer and anything you DO she see as manipulation on your part, no matter what the consequences are.
Sometimes thinking counter intuitively is the best method here. Like doing the exact opposite of what you might think.
Like in my divorce I told my wife I did not want my sons turtle. Then she did not want it either and was going to give it away. So now I have the turtle and my son is happy. If I said I wanted it, we would have gone to court to fight about it.
Because the FIGHT is what keeps giving them fuel. So if you can just agree to everything they say, their is no fuel.
