Capricorn women... very prickly, what's your experience and how to work around it?

My girlfriend can be very sensitive and I find often a contradiction, we'll talk things over and I think we're fine then very shortly afterwards i've pissed her off again. She's lovely it's just I seem to be getting it all wrong!

@SW-User I left the toilet seat lid up, yet again! I didn't help her to dry the dishes when she was washing up...(I was tired)
I didn't take the dogs to the vets... I wanted to cuddle and she wanted to be alone...

@Davemcdave Ask her why she's so picky and critical. Nothing to do with star signs. No woman should take crap from a guy, and ditto a guy from a woman. I mean, who cares about the toilet seat when cuddies are on offer?!! ;)

@SW-User one drunken night she came home and struggled to get to the bathroom unfortunately she fell in as I left the lid and seat up, she wasn't impressed. It's from this... as soon as she goes to the bathroom the flag goes off in my head but obviously it's too late.
Something's up!

@Davemcdave Lid up or down; neither is right or wrong
Ah! She has a few issues. Why tolerate BS?!

@SW-User I love her and she loves me. You tolerate a lot. It's not a constant thing or abusive nor controlling. It's just ive noticed it more recently and often, she's vocal whereas I'm not, and if I'm honest there's not much that she does that pisses me off except for this...

SW-User

@Davemcdave But you've asked how to handle it. If it's no problem, no problem
If she's an alcoholic, there are ways forward
It's clear you love her :)

@SW-User yes meaning is it better to give some space or tackle it head on...
