Yesterday she brought me a birthday present and left it on my porch after telling me why it's my fault she needs to be cold sometimes. When I told her I couldn't accept the gifts because I need consistency and that I was having a hard time trusting the kindness because of the hurtful things that come so frequently, she told that I was attacking her and to just leave and never talk to her again.
I've got a new phone from a different provider on order. As soon as it arrives I'll switch everything over and then cancel the old line, because I'm sure that otherwise, we'd be talking again in a week or two.
I just need to be ready for when she inevitably starts leaving letters at my door, or knocking because she wants to "talk". I'll probably have some time to build up my confidence, because she probably won't realize I've changed my number for a few weeks.
