coming from a place that made her feel it was ok to point to you as "the problem" is an indication of her attitude and basic immaturity. For her sake, I hope that as she experiences life, she will learn important attributes such as empathy, humility and respect for others with different viewpoints. If she really is a "very nice young woman", she may also be thinking about what SHE said and how she acted towards you and feeling bad about it. Hopefully she will examine her attitude and do little soul searching. If she does not, she has a rough life ahead of her...both in her personal life and in her chosen career. And here is a hug for you redstatebluegirl!
