writes:hi, i'm 21 years old in my senior year of college. i've been dating a girl for about 4 months or so now and she is very beautiful, smart, funny, etc. all the good stuff you look for in a g/f. my problem is this: we have arguments over the dumbest things, because she takes everything that i say to the extreme negative, and constantly worries about it. (ex: i told her she nagged me one day, and from that she went on about how she is the worst g/f in the world, yada yada yada) what can i do to get her to stop this behavior i've talked about it with her before and it hasnt seemed to help. any suggestions?

Eventually and hopefully she will get over being so sensitive and learn that everything isn't a criticism, and quit taking things so personal. If she doesn't seem to uderstand that your not being critical of her, then she just might be one of them girls that just like to pick fights.
