My girlfriend has temperament issues and I can never seem to soothe her. Should I do something different or just leave?

[Anonymous]

I believe my girlfriends temperament issues come from past trauma. She doesn't like to talk about her feelings and when I get worried about her she sometimes gets pissed off. I'm generally a logical person so I use logic for most heated situations. However logic doesn't calm her down; it usually makes things worse. Ex.

My girlfriend was looking for a college admissions office while on the phone with me. She said she was lost and asked for help so I suggested going to the closest building and asking for directions. She didn't respond to my suggestion; I thought she didn't hear me so I said it again and she got pissed and told me to just stop. I shut down like I usually do when people are upset with me. My girlfriend then asked a girl on the sidewalk for directions, she followed those directions but they didn't help. She assumed the girl purposely gave her the wrong directions and got upset. I told her the girl probably just made a mistake. My girlfriend asked why I can't just take her side. I didn't think there were sides to take; I was just thinking of the most logical explanation.

That being said, should I try to be more in tune with emotions when trying to calm my girlfriend or stick to my more logical side or maybe something else?

It's not your job to soothe her, if she has temperamental issues that's something she needs to work on. If I were you I would leave and if she gives the help that she needs then you can get back together

I'm not sure she can afford professional help, but thank you for the advice.
