UF makes a great point. She sees you taking a stand for yourself, which causes her to break out the artillery to make you retreat. The choices you make at these major junctures will make a huge impact either way. Your W is watching, even if she isn't acknowledging it.
In general, people remember the negative things that happen. Don't give her any ammo. Consistent, positive change.
