Hi NW: I am feeling more confident - and more like myself in many ways...I think I just had to go through some extreme sorrow to get here - maybe like it was just pushing that sadness out to make room for me again...don't know...but that's how it feels.
I think you're right that this exchange could become a pi$$ing match - so it ends now in that last note I sent her...there's really not much more to discuss. When I asked my T today about whether or not I should respond to her emails - especially the ones with accusations in them - he said, "it doesn't seem to me like she's asking you anything, so there's really no reason to respond." I thought that was clever.
Anyway...my plan now is just to be kind, request respect, offer respect, and just continue to try to be her friend - even though I can see that she doesn't want me as a friend at all...that's okay with me now.
