I never did fully understand it, but thought it might help you to hear it, and maybe give you some hope that next Wednesday things will be ok. I'm glad you have some time to try and sort this before she goes.

Yes my T is similar. She's great in person - owns her own stuff, apologises non defensively, talks to me about my feelings etc. She doesn't come across so well over text or email and it's been an issue that causes me a lot of angst. I think she has a real problem with me being angry with her so rather than see the pain behind it, she takes it personally as it upsets her.
