You aren't to blame? Yes, you are. You have contributed to the situation you are in. Which is good, it means you have the ability to change your part. You also need to let her go, and allow her to be herself without being in charge of how she does or says something.

You seem angry and combative. You have said things to her that you know, I know, and everyone knows will make her feel bad. If you can't start owning up to your mistakes, why should she? Conflict avoidance is something guys with NGS do. Are you going to read the validation links and read about NGS?

If WW "comes in hot" to talk, you validate, listen. Every WW/WH tries to argue with the LBS. You then fuel her fire by putting down her family, arguing back, or telling her how she can't communicate without XYZ.
