So we're going to stay friends, and I'm sure you're right that maybe she's not going to be able to stay friends if that's who she really is. She's getting help. But I know, in the back of her mind, she knows she threw away the best person there ever could have been for her.
She is not your friend.
In the back of her mind the only thing she knows is that she underestimated you and overestimated her control over you. Nothing more. If she ever was capable of recognizing your value and appreciating you she would never have betrayed you.
She regrets being caught. She regrets that she has lost control over you and the narrative.
Entertain her as your friend at your own risk. She will still look for ways to hurt you and assert control over your life. If you give her the opportunity she will do her best to not only sabotage your efforts to heal and move on, but she will attempt to tank any romantic relationships you may enjoy going forward.

I literally have no idea where her mind is. I think it's just likely she's just has a disconnect. We're still friendly towards each other, but I am frustrating the hell out of her with boundaries.
