Advice on dealing with "strong women"
So, i have been seeing this girl who i really like for a few weeks now, she has some funny ways about her, a lot of people i know, who know her don't like her too much, see the thing is she is really self confident to the point of coming off as arrogant, shes also very sure of herself and very assertive.
I actually like these traits in a woman, i go for the "alpha female" type, the problem arose last night, i had a football game to play, unfortunatley it was also her goddaughters birthday party, she asked me to go and normally i would have, but this was a regional semi final and i needed to play the game so I said i had to miss it, and then all hell broke loose. She was not shy to have a go at me, and I wasn't backing down for a second, I knew that this day would come and i was going to show her i wasn't a pushover, and told her not to think about ordering me around. I don't think she is used to someone arguing back at her, and this has caused a problem, I tried calling her this morning to smooth things over, but no answer, then her friend called me, she basically said that she is used to everything going her way, and she doesnt know how to react to someone who will fight back in an argument, especially not someone she cares about.
I wonder what to do next, to me we argued, you know it's water under the bridge now, she needs to understand that everything isnt going to go her way, but also i do really care about her, i dont want to be arging all the time, should i go round there with some flowers or something?
