          Here's another:

          She and I went for a walk.
          Her and I went for a walk.
          She and me went for a walk.
          Her and me went for a walk.

              This isn't so much about what your books say, but about how YOU speak and YOUR native speaker intuition. Which would you be more likely to use, regardless of what the books say? And with what meaning?

              You're on the right track though, but there's a bit more. The first sentence is ambiguous. Maybe the second is too.

                You dont say her and me,
                Me and her went for a walk is the correct one.

                  "takes her hat off" here is a good example of women's logic and common scene.

                    That's very interesting, if you're serious.
