writes: Hey people, My girlfriend has a really bad attitude at times and it becomes really difficult to say anything to her once she is in that "zone." When she is pissed it seems like she basically disregards anything I say and everything I say she thinks I'm attacking her. We had gotten into an argument yesterday and when I called her today she said she was sleeping and that she will call me back so I said okay. I texted her to let her know that I love her so when she wakes up she could see it. She never texted me back and the call I made to her was over 7hours ago and its getting late. I don't think she is going to call me back today. I know its not a big issue but I've been with her for almost 4years. Everytime I say it is hard to talk to her during her mad period she thinks I'm just criticizing and attacking her. How can I tell her this without making it seem that way?

She's probably defensive because she knows she's hurting you but doesn't want to admit that she's doing so. What I would do is take her out to somewhere nice or set u a sweet date. Tell her that you love her, but you need to have a serious relationship. Stress that you love her very much, but that it hurts her a lot when she has such a terrible attitude. Perhaps give her examples and point out that she probably wouldn't like it if you treated her that way. Tell her you want to work on this problem together, because you do like being with her. (Oh, and probably DON'T bring this up while she's on her period... Pick another time instead).
