Stay in your room. Let her spew. Listen. Validate.

keep your cool and stay in control of the situation. Don’t let things escalate. Just validate.

Validate = reflect back that you understand how she is feeling with your words.

They always seem to be. Frustrating. I honestly don't see how I would ever want to reconcile with my wife as much hatred and bitterness she has thrown towards me in recent months.

I mean what percentage of WAS ever truly apologize for their behavior ?

Think about it this way; as emotionally confused as you feel right now, look at how you’re able to think more clearly in the heat of the moment. Now look at her and imagine how emotionally wrecked she is right now. Empathize. Validate. Stay in control.

It’s only going to make her more angry because she want to fight with you so she can justify her actions. Don’t fall for it.
