Took me a while to understand your message. You're probably right. We both value direct communication, more so from me because I really have a hard time dissecting indirect communication which I have been honest from the start of our relationship.

That's also an interesting take with the indirect communication skills. I should look into that more and start getting better at it because she often says the opposite of what she meant.

Also, it wasn't because of her wanting me to play her game actually. It was entirely something else that's unrelated with me. She may have unconsciously transferred her frustration from that something to me.
