My girlfriend lately takes things I say the wrong way all the time. If I say anything even close to being a criticism she ends up twisting it into something that she gets defensive over. Example that just happened -- we just got to her Grandparent's farm for her sister's wedding, really old place, has a "since 1863" sign. Apparently it has no bathroom, so we drove 12 miles to her parents' house to take her aunt and mother to the bathroom. I said "damn that's a long way to go for the bathroom," as in it's a bummer that anyone that needs or wants a flushable toilet has to go so far. She took it as in I was criticising her mom and aunt for going so far, as if they should have just figured out a different solution, saying "well I don't know I'm sure they wanted to come here for other things too."
This kind of thing happens probably a dozen times a day every day I'd say.
Do not get married to her. It will only get worse.
