Yes. I avoid her now as much as possible. I don't like bumping into her at family functions but am relieved that she cannot bother me at the capacity that she did before. I still can't believe myself for actually catering to her ridiculous demands before, not realizing that behind that helpless mask to buy my sympathy, were her self-serving motives. As far as her acting dumb recently (after I distanced myself from her), I don't know what benefit she was hoping to gain from pretending not to know. I mean, her acting dumb will not make me consider resuming regular communication with her. Only her acting healthy would make me consider that.
