I love my girlfriend to death. She is the best thing that’s happened to me in a long time. She has a clingy side to her, which I love joy, but I fear she gets herself worked up over things and conjures bad ideas. For example, I went to a concert with my friend, I told her the reception was terrible. She was still upset when I couldn’t reach out to her for several hours. She is still upset days later with the knowledge that it was out of my hands. I also will come up with a nice idea for something we can do together, and if I can’t pull it off or it’s a fraction of what I built up, she gets upset. I don’t believe she is wrong here, but I don’t know really what else to do. It’s hard to describe, so my apologies on the vagueness.

Last week, I told her I would come to her place one evening. I ended up getting extremely tired from the day (she was with me and we were supposed to go separately to her place), and I told her I was really tired and didn’t want to drive the hour and a half to her place. She stayed at my place and said that it was ok, but she’s mad at me today about that.

Today she got upset with me because I wanted to read a bit before work with my headphones on and she wanted to watch Tv. She stated that she felt like I didn’t want to spend time with her. I don’t know how to convince her that it’s not my intention for it to come out this way.

Things like this keep happening and she told me today that she hasn’t been happy lately.

How can I make it up to her and fix This?
