Lookback: 1 day after the trip

Tried to discuss the issue with my girlfriend

My girlfriend accused me of being grumpy during a day trip, but couldn't explain why. I brought up her own grumpy behavior, which she didn't take well.

What I wish I knew
"How to communicate with her without escalating the situation"
If I could tell you one thing
"Try to remain calm and avoid taking things personally when discussing conflicts"
