Daz,
That sounds like about the most sane bird I've ever heard when going through a difficult patch.
You've got to see it from her point of view - she suggests getting together to meet, and you do the typical blokey thing, and blow her out for the football, and try to convey how pissed off you are by giving a cold shoulder.
I tell ya mate - us blokes are absolute amateurs when it comes to relationships - it took me to hell and back with one girl to work it out.
