Great job not seeing her this weekend-- and looks like you can already see the impact it is having on her. If you need some support to lay off on the friendly text responses-- just see how much the NC is working so far in person and you can bet that non-committal, irregular text responses will have the same effect.
And for Thanksgiving-- love CW/RTC's responses. And also why not make other plans anyway per AS and not go to her family's? That way you aren't worrying about what it will/won't be like with her there; you can avoid seeing her and her family and the potential pain that might bring; things will be much more under YOUR control than hers. A marathon, not a sprint... skipping Thanksgiving this year in the service of the long-term might be a good trade.
