From the other side:

1. She wakes up, thinks it would be nice to get frisky with you, and waits for you to come after her.
2. You play on the computer instead.
3. She reacts by complaining about you being on the computer.
4. Instead of realising she's just asking for attention, you turn it into an argument, demonstrate clearly why she's wrong, and make her feel bad because instead of paying positive attention to her, you make her feel bad.
5. She's not happy with you and wants to talk about what's wrong.
6. You say, "nothing's wrong, I already accepted your apology."

7. Everybody goes to bed unhappy.

While I like these viewpoints; this one is way off. For number 1, she never gave indication that I should be doing any chasing. She gave a CLEAR indication of 'I have some [censored] work to do before we have any fun.' I went to the computer AFTER she made it clear that she had to get work done.

3/4. She bitched about my poker time while STILL working. There was never a "I want you to distract me from work" kind of thing going on or anything close. There wasn't even a complaint about me doing other things. It was totally directed at the evil card game, not at the fact that I wasn't giving her attention.

I appreciate the attempt at another viewpoint, but not even close this time.
