She has a right to decide to be easily offended. I submit that it would be in *her best interest*, in whatever relationship she chooses, this or another, to be less sensitive, to allow for the difference of opinion on simple matters and fight the Big Stuff with limits.
This was one of the best pieces of marital advice I have ever received. I attempt to pass it on.
