The funny thing was, she apologised for offending me not for what she said and what that meant. She didn't seem to actually consider what she'd said to have been wrong.
The thing is, like I said before she sounds stubborn and competative. If there's an obviously conflict between you, she'll stay up on her horse whether it was her fault or not. You need to remove that competative shit she's holding between you as couples.

Maybe she's childish, pathetic, and a total waster of money (as far as her husband's concerned)?
Seriously, if he likes collecting Warhammer, then good for him as that's his thing. It's not like John is wasting his entire life away on games or anything, he's in engineering! You go crazy in engineering if you don't have a hobby.

Honest though, things like this, I'd recommend just have some time apart.

I've got friends like yours, it's just a matter of chalk and cheese. It's someone inate humanity coming out and you're going to have to put up with her putting her mouth in it as you can't change anything.
You could try talking to her again, although that obviously failed last time. This time you could threaten the relationship by forcing her to change or end her ways, but you're a smart girl, you know not to raise your voice, get forceful or agressive.
We can't really offer much support seeing as we don't know the in's and out's of the relationship, plus we don't have Suz's side of the story. All I can offer is my sympathy.
(Side note: You should post some pics of what warhammer John collects and paints, I used to do it for a while until I realised I was poor and couldn't afford them

I know that you like to you like to handle situations in a more sophisticated manner, but sometimes you have to fuck the subtleties and learn to be blunt in life.

Secondly, I mentioned it's a bunch of small things snowballing into a large problem.
Thirdly, I stated from the start that I had considered I was partly to blame and had been putting in effort to fix the problems on my end.
Fuck. Thanks for making an incredibly fucking bastard of a day even worse.
I take it the meal didn't go well?

I don't know how to offer a suggestion better than that? These bunch of small things are fights over dessert recipes and WarHammer :|.. I'm just curious as to how you can be best friends with someone for over a decade and still be sensitive to shit like that enough to ruin your day and your friendship. A bit silly, no?

/facepalm. It's not like that. It's about the buildup of it all. Those were just two recent examples. It's more about her friend feelings so insecure that she needs to lash out at Kitsune. This has been going on for two years now. After that long of trying to save a relationship of any kind even the smallest things get really irritating. Anyone who has known someone who has gone through a divorce or a breakup after a long term relationship knows this as well.
Keep in mind this is also a woman posting. We care more about emotions than males usually do so those types of things actually do bother us a lot.
