Taking 100% responsibility for your life would suggest to me that you take 100% responsibility for how her actions make you feel and how you react to what she says and does. I agree with Angela in that it looks to me like you feel annoyed/frustrated/concerned about the way she behaves and as a result, want her to change to suit you. Love means accepting people as they are and allowing them the space in which to grow, encouragingly and gently. You choose whether or not to see her behaviour as problematic to the relationship or not - that's taking responsibility.
