I totally understand this. You are right...every individual is entitled to adjust their boundaries to the most appropriate and comfortable level. I don't think it is unreasonable to feel hurt that she suddenly changed her boundaries or how she treats you. Given you have been honest with her about your feelings and confusion regarding the relationship, I can see how the change is justified. It is still a very reasonable concern to bring up. Even though you may understand it, the change doesn't sit too well with you and it's worth discussing. Maybe you will feel better if you two can talk it out? I'm sorry you're experiencing these conflicting feelings.
I know you have been struggling with this for a while now.
