I think from a communication standpoint, we LBS' tend to get overly concerned about replying to every point/question, and trying to make sure our position is always clearly understood. I know I'm guilty of that.

Often, the best response is to not respond, or to leave a little mystery.

I might respond with something like "Right now I'm just focused on enjoying time with D and making some improvements in my life."

You don't necessarily need to address the 'friends' thing directly. It's good if the WW isn't always sure where you stand. Perhaps let her continue to wonder about whether you are now the one walking away from her.
