She and I talked this out and we'll work things out on our own. Seeking out relationship counseling on an internet forum is an absurdity in itself. It would be completely unsubstantiated to make any kind of broad conclusion about a stranger's relationship based solely on a 15 minute text conversation, and in that regard, every reply to this thread has been completely unhelpful.
Let me refocus my question. Like I said, this is only a question about English. I could just as easily ask someone in passing on the street or on another unrelated forum, but this is posted here because this forum is tangentially related.
Ok, here goes the question, so read carefully: Based on the language used in the texts, is she expressing just simple and impersonal disappointment that I am not with her, or is she trying to tell me that I am at fault for my own inaction?
In the future, it would be helpful for me to know whether she is simply stating that something would be nice or if she is trying to tell me I need to do something different. Again, I am not questioning whether or not her concerns are legitimate. I am only asking about the manner in which she is stating her concern. The key here is to find out how a common person would take that kind of conversation.
Any well-thought responses are greatly appreciated.
