Oh my, people are trying hard to confuse you!\n\nI think we've all established that the verb should be ACCEPTS, right?\n\nSo, moving on: the pronoun must be HER. Why? It is the object of the preposition "except" and therefore must be in the objective, not the nominative, case.

Well...it actually is debatable, but I'd go with "was" to be on the safe side...\n\nWith either/or (neither/nor) things that contain subjects that take different verb forms, there is no definitive agreement on which form the verb should take.\n\nA majority, however, says that you should follow the subject that is closest to the verb, in this case " I ", so, since:\n\nI WAS asking for refills --> Neither you nor I was asking for refills.\n\nA minority say that the verb should always be singular in these cases, and an even smaller minority say that either verb form is acceptable.\n\nSo your best bet to avoid the ire of an anal-retentive English teacher (or professor, editor, yourself, etc.) is to go with the "closest to the verb" rule, in this case WAS.

I agree with The Professor (real or not) but regarding the last example he used (See below)\n>>>Thus, the rule requires you to say We can come to an agreement only if everyone is willing to compromise. But you can say more naturally, with slightly different emphasis and with no risk of misunderstanding, We can only come to an agreement if everyone is willing to compromise.<<<\nI tend to disagree.  These two arrangements do convey different meanings.  The first one means "No compromise, no agreement (i.e. a compromise is the requirement for an agreement)."  The second sentence means "An agreement is the only thing and nothing else we arrive at upon a compromise. (i.e. when a compromise is reached, we have no choice but agree)."

Hmmm...if you meant one particular person, then why do you generalize with "all".  Generalizations are false and really irritating.  Try to have more consideration in the future.

Are you the only one talking?  You would need to use "to" for that.  If you two are exchanging ideas, "with" would work better.

I was taught a simple way to know which is correct.  Say the sentence without the other person's name. As in: "Me & Kathy went to the store" becomes: "Me went to the store." Obviously "Me" is incorrect.  Another: "It was a secret known only by me & Kathy". Becomes: "It was a secret known only to me". In this case "me" is correct.\nThis works every time!
