[QUOTE="Steph2mm, post: 736929, member: 23243"] Unfortunately, the bills we pay are her car insurance and cell phone bill which is all lumped together. Both of those are in family plans so the bills don’t go to her, we just pay them cause they come here so she won’t have to contact me when the bills need paid. After this whole ordeal we will be taking her off the insurance so she can get her own and we will be exploring what needs to be done with the phone situation. I feel I can handle all of that, but I’m struggling with things she said about how I’ve made her feel. I’m not completely innocent of pushing her too hard.... If I have been in the wrong at all where she feels as if nothing is good enough for me, do I reach out and apologize for this? If so, I don’t know how to approach this.... I feel so saddened by all this and I’m frankly a little scared what I’ll feel like if she is unfeeling and aloof when I approach her. I know I don’t sound very parental right now but I grew up with criticism and it’s not completely ridiculous that she feels I do that sometimes to her. [/QUOTE]
