I don't know either party, and I haven't had anything close to resembling PMS in almost 20 years. However, overreacting is something I am quite used to in people. It's not right, but it's part of what makes a person who they are.
I have a friend who's extremely high maintenance emotionally most days, that if she's not paid attention to, she gets all sulky and upset. Her husband loves her inspite of this and we work around this flaw.
If I had a pissy day at work, and I walked in the house and said I had a pissy day, (then added I was PMSing) and my beloved asked my to clean a grungy pan that he didn't need to use right now, it was just bothering him -- but not bothering him enough to wash it himself - I probably would have considered bopping him over the head with said pan. (or just said something along the lines of wash it your damn self -- sometimes walking off is the best course of action)
Yes, it's overly dramatic to not talk to someone for two days (then again, my mother hasn't talked to me for 3 blissful months) this doesn't make her a bad person. Is the silent treatment normal for her? It's not exactly mature, but it is how some people get over things -- other folks just yell and scream and others repress...
