Do i stop all contact entirely? I don't want to deprive her of the dogs and vice versa, but how do I proceed with maintaining my dignity, not writing her off, but taking my space, all while missing her terribly? Can this turn around? Does this ever happen even after a slew of words like those she threw at me (see above)? I know she's there at the OP's right now. How do people get through this?
