she sent me a pin on pinterest today saying

 

"when aquarius is hurt, the recovery process is very long. they cant just snap out of it. already a detached type, they may even grow more distant"

It means you're going to get reacquainted with your right hand until at least Easter.

If she has any self respect she won't. What a disgusting thing to say to a woman you supposedly care about or maybe you don't!

Sure but that's an adjective. What you said was a noun and probably one of the worst things you can say to someone you care about - at least top 10.

My father was an Aquarius.

He took no time at all and never harboured grudges, against anyone.

I guess you really must have cut her to the bone with that one.

 

While this is obviously something that has, is and will play on her mind for a while, you could implement a damage limitation strategy by telling her, kindly, and with due consideration that (1) you will never, ever resort to name-calling again, and (2) "Please tell me, what can I possibly do to make it up to you? I said it in the heat of the moment, it was wrong and I regret it. What can I do, in your eyes, to prove to you that I'm sorry? How can I make this better?"

If you think words like that are any less of an assault than a slap on the face, you've got something pretty serious to learn. She's not overreacting, you need to take this in as good information about your lack of ability to handle stress and learn now.

 

'Losing your cool' isn't ever going to be an excuse. When you lash out the damage can't be undone. Maybe in your family that was acceptable, but in most of the world lashing out when you 'lose your cool' is going to create big problems -- for you. Would you talk to a boss like that? If not, you've got the ability, you just learn to bring that respect into other relationships.

 

You're going to be provoked by men and women far worse than she did in the future personally and professionally, you better be able to handle it in a way that doesn't ruin the relationship. Everyone has to start somewhere, if you didn't learn this at home you can teach yourself. Buy some books or see a counselor or something if this doesn't make sense.

What happens when say your boss pushes you to the brink -- would you call him a POS out of anger or because you lost your cool? If you have the ability to restrain yourself from doing it in those types of situations, then you can have the restraint to never speak to a loved one that way.

 

Plus, I don't know what type of relationship you two have that you both freely insult and degrade one another.

This is the first time in the year we have been together that I haveccalled her a name

 

Can't she let it go

I think something like that will stay around for a long while. Actions have repercussions. You'll just have to give her time to ride it out herself. Someone said it -- it's going to be hard for her to "unhear" that.

 

If my boyfriend spoke to me that way, I wouldn't even want to be around him.

Would you dump him?

 

Especially if it was the first time

Before I answer that, my question to you is, what was so bad about the quarrel that you had to call her a POS?

 

The only time I ever called a partner that was when I caught him cheating on me. I can't think of anything as compelling to call someone you love a piece of shytt.

She lied to me. She said she was with a couple of friends shopping when she was actually out with some co worker guy of hers

I can see why you would hit the roof and blow off on her character by calling her that. But I wouldn't condone that use of language.

 

Where does the lie stand in this situation?

She took the risk of making you mad, breaking trust and possibly causing a huge rift/crack in her relationship because she wanted to hang with this guy. Guy was her priority at the expense of the relationship. Bad sign.

 

If I were you, I'd have my radars up.

Your right. But I mean yeah I was wrong to call her that but shouldn't she realize she was just as wrong. I hurt her but she also hurt me

It doesn't matter the name calling anymore. You have a bigger issue to focus on. For some reason I am thinking that she's now using that against you to take the heat and guilt of her.

 

Have your radar up. Lying about this guy is not a good sign.

It means she's a drama queen and enjoys playing the victim.

 

 

Wonder whether "healing" herself over this namecalling incident will involve hanging out with other men.

So why did she think you would get mad over something so benign? This whole thing doesn't make sense to me.

Right. That's why she had to hide it from you.

 

Eyes open.
