Cindy, I agree with Brenda. This woman has some issues, and NONE of them are your fault! Maybe there are some mental health problems, which would explain the ups and downs and mood swings.

Next time "she loves you" maybe you could mention counseling. It sounds like she needs to deal with the emotions of loss and reunion.

There comes a point when you have to decide if it is healthy for you to have her in your life. If you feel like you need a break from the roller coaster, get off for a while. I would send her a letter expressing your feeling of hurt, and tell her that you're going to give her a break for a while. Maybe she'll see it as you caring about her feelings. Bottom line: do what you need to do for you.
