I personally think it seemed very even matched and right and wrong on both sides, but I didn't find her not believing you initially based on your past unreasonable, Thump, and I do think that when she congratulated you that you should have accepted her congratulations, because maybe she'd come to believe you at that point. However, if she started to mistrust you again after that, then that's another matter.
