Pushing her to what? Does she think you'll try to convert her back to agnosticism? Do you notice when you talk about the stuff you're doing it with a twinge of superiority?
I'm only saying that because I do it too, especially when talking to my wife. We'll talk about something and I'll try to prove my point instead of just listening to what she has to say.
