I think I agree with you here. When I get mad at her for something, she always finds a way to turn it around and get mad at
me, thereby making me the antagonist and taking the heat off herself. Example: she goes out with her friends and tells me that she'll call me later that night. She doesn't call me back, and I don't call her because she's supposed to be the one calling me. The next day we talk and I say "Why didn't you call me back? I was worried about you." She says "If you were so worried, why didn't you call to check on me?" And suddenly I'm the bad guy. (Last time she did this, I called her on it and she hasn't tried it since.)
All I can do now is wait until she calls. I'm still angry with her, but I sympathize with her situation, and when we do get a chance to talk about it I'll let her know that it upset me and hopefully we can work through this.
