Hm… Is there anything about yourself that you feel you need to change?

What does she criticise you about?

Try talking to her? Explain to her exactly how she makes you feel. And that is also a good point Vilén made. Maybe she really believes she has reason to criticise you. maybe you need to carefully consider what she criticises you about, and decide whether it is unfair, and hence talk to her, or maybe decide that she might be right and hence try and change slightly. But ultimately, you need to talk to her, not us!

Plan something fun to do with her so that she has something else to think about. Sometimes we just get into a bad habit and need to change the routine to shake things up. Once she is in a good mood, ask her to put her complaints in writing and see what she comes up with. If she sees that you take her complaints to heart, maybe she will ease up.

If you have ever done anything wrong. Maybe you should apologize. If you feel you don’t want to apologize, maybe you have to take a break and think about it. Then invite her to starbucks, buy her coffee, sit down and talk to her. Tell her how you feel, she will not think any different of you when you talk, for the hell of it say “do not think any different of me when I talk about my feelings”. Communication is key to any relationship.

Good response, you’ve written a novel there.
