I would like to eventually hang a shingle as a tax lawyer, but need experience. TIA!

My fiancé will NOT stop talking about her ex. After I found out they were texting arguing she justified it by saying it was about the dogs and not them.

I try to bring it up and I get dismantled for being too mean and making “false accusations.” How much more obvious can it be?
