Why oh WHY did you have a conversation with her? Or go out to dinner? Complete waste of time.

You want her to THINK she can’t get dinner with you. When she asks, say no, I have plans, and then leave the house.

Once you agreed to dinner, and engaged in a conversation, the damage was done. After that point, it doesn’t matter what you said or did - nothing was going to stop her going berserk.

STOP STICKING YOUR FINGER IN THE POWERPOINT.

“How do you feel about leaving me last night?”

“Haven’t really thought about it. Anyway, I’m off to the gym!”
