Lookback: 2 years into our relationship

“My girlfriend insists on washing chicken before cooking”

She refused to eat a meal I made because I didn't wash the meat, and became stubborn and uncommunicative

What I wish I knew
"Her stubbornness might be a sign of deeper issues"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly and honestly with your partner, even on trivial matters"
