Trust me, 1210 I did that stuff too. In my post I just mentioned a few things I did and how I kept in check my bad habits. We're both social workers and if I said "how does that make you feel" she'd go through the roof! I think she was very tired, angry and took it out on me. Honestly, I thought it had been going very well and then I took that pee break In the past I also was the one to close off conversations at around midnight so I think she figured that time was coming and that pissed her off too. In the situation she was discussing with me, I was with her all the way... I think she's being crapped on too. When she is like this, she reacts emotionally to everything and sometimes, as in this case, it made no sense! She's feeling enormous stress right now, it's Xmas time, also that time of month for her and there are issues with both daughters (one behaviour and the other dealing with her teacher). It's a full plate right now. Thanks for checking in 1210 and AT!
Oh, did I mention she had just finished working 12 hours too?
