Strange Words With Friends problem

I’ve been playing WWF with my girlfriend for quite some time. Recently when a game finished and I hit ‘rematch’ I got an error message “Oops, that user has too many games and is unable to accept your invitation”. She tried to challenge me and got the same thing. She only had 3 games going and I only had 4. We can both successfully start new games with other people, just not each other. Any ideas? The Zynga support forums had no hits on the error message.
