Impala, I posted on a couple of your threads because I'm going through a similar situation. It is painful and difficult, especially when we have so many unanswered questions. Since she is a liar, how can you ever again trust what she might say to you?

Things will never go back to the way they had been, that is for sure. You will always carry that pinch of doubt and uncertainty about this woman, even if you do end up to be back in a friendship.

I sense that you, like me, are struggling with a deep attachment to this friend and haven't yet found a way to release your own heart from something that has already left you.

The sooner we can shed the old, the sooner we can welcome the new. We've both done our best, but sometimes, our best just isn't what's needed in the hearts of the others.

Time is helping me let the past fade away, I am making a concerted effort to release my attachment for a lost friend. You can do it too, it takes time and patience and forgiveness to that person for not being the friend you need. She isn't today, she won't be tomorrow.
