Standoffish 

Unpleasant, usually for no good reason.

Someone that wasn't friendly with Louis XIII would always bark about/threaten with beatdown this or reserving the right to beat his ass that, always getting standoffish with him if they even thought he was going to do something they didn't like whether he had done it yet or hadn't (which doing something somebody doesn't like should give someone else the right to kill you, and nobody likes getting threats from an instigator, so nothing works out and no deals/compromises are made between the two unfriendly parties).

Something your girlfriend says that makes you feel like your an idiot, then you realize its not a word.
