Hmm... that's quite the odd thing to say...

I was her once, mad, argumentative... but then I grew out of it. That was 21 years ago. I'm 26 now.

So... by the time you're in your forties it will probably be all good. Question is, are you willing to put up with it for that long?

It's also quite common to hear of spectacular breakups, and very rare to see successful relationships come of this type of beginning. While I'm sure a lot of that is due to the "gossip column" nature of reporting these days, intuitively it seems a natural consequence of the type of relationship. The trust and respect in one's coach and the pride and nurturing of one's athlete do not translate well into an equal partnership(keyword being equal) that is necessary in a life mate.

As for this particular athlete, she seems to have lost all respect for you if she ever had any. Ending this relationship before it becomes violent would be my advice.

After all the bickering back and forth, one thing is still clear and has been since the first response to this thread. Will you or won't you continue to put up with this childish behavior? Time to Sh** or get off the pot buddy... personally, she would have been gone a long time ago.

Regardless of how much education she may have, she sounds remarkably like a bipolar constantly having hissy fits and temper tantrums. Run to the nearest exit or keep seeing her to your emotional peril.
