I guess the reason why I'm writing about all this is in wondering if anyone has experienced this type of increasing dysfunction and how the cope with it, deal with it, etc.
Well..

Oof. Unsolicited advice.

She prefers her way--your is more comprehensive, hers is more green.

ICLACS, I think this was unnecessary. First, you could skip offering unsolicited advice. Second, when she disagrees, you could prefer listening, validating, and being curious to "explaining" your view. Even when you must explain your view, considering their view first often makes others more receptive.
