I think I know exactly what she was saying. I’ve heard that speech hundreds of times.

You don’t pay attention to me! You ignore me! Why can’t you acknowledge that I’m here? Would it kill you to have a conversation with me? Why do I feel most lonely when you are around? What is wrong with you? Don’t you know how to show affection? Why don’t you take me anywhere? Are you listening to me? why don’t you respond to me? This is what I’m talking about, you aren’t paying attention! Don’t you have anything to say to me? I’m waiting. What is your response? Are you a human being or a robot? why don’t you have any humanity? Why are you so cold? stoicism is not a virtue. You have no emotion. I need to know what you are feeling. why can’t you talk to me? Are you retarded? Tell me what you are thinking, dammit! Can you speak? I’ve been sitting over here all by myself with the dog reading this dam book for an hour waiting for you to come over to me and show me some affection. I’M SICK OF WAITING! Can’t you take a hint? Do I have to tell you everything? Why can’t you do this one simple little thing for me without me asking? What is wrong with you? You aren’t normal. this is not how normal couples interact. you don’t interact. I can’t take it anymore.

Blah blah blah.
