why have the conversation? That's Persuing, and in your case you already know how she feels. The only reason you want the conversation is to try and get her to change her mind.. Pressure and persuit, both bad for you.

Don't want to be a doormat, then stop being one. Don't tell her, just DO IT. Your not going to change things by talking about it, only by making changes.
