Re: Am I being unreasonable?

Sounds to me that she has a problem with her competitive streak and is struggling to overcome it. That's why she talks about how she handles it as she finds it difficult. Maybe recognising that she has the problem and is trying to work through it is the answer. She is not in the place you are but so long as she is working at it you need to accept where she is. It is likely that she can handle a few other things better than you but that is part of marriage. If we can see our faults because of the other's strength in an area that is no bad thing.

Obviously a married couple should pull together for each other whilst rejoicing in the other's success and being sad at their failures. That is a normal part of love, but sometimes we have to learn it.
