The argument was over bullet chess. She disapproves of the fact that I mostly play bullet and blitz and she resents giving me advice and teaching me skills because she thinks I wasted her time playing in crazy fast time controls that are mostly about speed and reaction time. She felt I should have 'let her know' that I 'didn't care about chess' so that she didn't have to waste her time...
I pointed out that I do also play long form chess as well as bullet and blitz and she lost it and swore at me.
She has known since our FIRST EVER CONVERSATION that I was into speed chess. I don't know how she came to feel that I deceived her.
A christian with control/manipulation issues, how novel.
