    Sounds very nice what you did, but you were ultimately too nice to her and not looking out for yourself enough. I bet in their eyes, it was like you were training your replacement you knew you'd need.

    I will try to put myself into her position. I don't agree with her actions, at all, but I think she may be feeling guilty now and afraid to talk to you. Initially, I think she may have felt indebted to you and for some reason she was very uncomfortable with this. She may have thought she felt an obligation towards you but she was uncomfortable since she did not know what your expectation was. Perhaps she was afraid that you may have wanted something from her that she was unable to give, for whatever reason. Or she may be in a bad place psychologically herself and unable to open that door. Yes, you are correct to feel hurt. But, don't let her ruin any more days. Just stay as nice as you are and waste no more energy on her. Just feel glad that you are a thoughtful and giving person. The world needs more generous people like you!
