But she is still so angry about losing her "friends" that all her negative emotions flow towards me.
I would like to suggest that she does not have "negative" emotions. They are just her emotions. She needs to release her repressed anger. It is how you respond to this venting that is important....
Put on your "rain coat". Listen, validate, but do not feed the fire. Do this with compassion. Detach but understand. If you can do this, she will feel better afterward. Make it feel safe for her to vent to you....
Can you understand why I am advising you to do this?
