Ultimatums are not ever a wise way to go. Never make a statement that you are not prepared to back up. Guilt is the result of failing to consider all of the possible outcomes of an action. Think carefully about this. Also, over time, with the proper direction, it's entirely possible that she might change her mind. For the moment, it sounds, frankly, as if there are other, deeper issues to be addressed in your relationship. Be open to the idea that YOU may need to modify some of your behaviors and thought patterns as well.
