The best way to handle it is to STOP her when she starts it and tell her you will walk away if she starts that
Well, if there are future interactions where that starts up again, then I will take your advice.
That being said, it has taken its toll over the years, and sometimes I seriously feel like she has lived a parallel R in her head that didn't involve finding out how I felt or what I was thinking.
Before I learned the term "validation", I used to think I felt like she just didn't see me at all.
