Hi, new here and need advice, struggling about an issue

I was friends with this lady, online only, for over 2 years. Recently I had some issues with my teenage son and his behavior. I couldn't handle him any more and after enlisting the help of some family we decided to send him to a 2 week long away from home treatment center. The point was to give me a break as well as for him to work out his anger issues with some adult professionals. My friend became very upset over this, told me that I was a terrible father and accused me of walking out on my son instead of helping him. She went on to say that I complain about being under stress and not being able to handle it anymore and said that that was a cop out because I was just not wanting to deal with him. I told her that I have depression issues as well and that I just can't deal with everything right now and that we all needed some outside help. She said that my mental health issues were a crutch and that I was looking for attention and then said th at she couldn't be in my life anymore and she deleted me from her friends list, banned me from her forum and basically just gave me the boot. So I respected that and I left her alone. Today I found out that she is contacting other friends that I speak with online, telling them my personal family business and telling them that I am liar and not to trust me and she herself is telling some really stupid lies about me trying to get these people to hate me. So far I have been ignoring her. She is 40 and I am 35, to me, we're both a little old to be playing childish head games. :glare: I started to wonder though, is she upset because she kicked me out of her life and I just walked away? Did she expect me to contact her back and beg for her forgiveness and give me another chance? BTW we were never romantic and I am sure that she doesn't want me that way, I am gay and she is aware of this. I am just wondering, am I missing something? If she was the one to break contact, then wh y is she still causing drama when I haven't spoken to her, or tried to contact her or anything? I've already lost 4 friends because of her and she is still causing trouble. She even contacted my partner and tried to pull him into the fight and he basically told her that he wanted no part of it and to move on. He told her that she made the choice to not have me in her life and she needs to live with that the same as I have. She did make a comment to one mutual friend that she expected me to break down, go into a depression and end up in the mental ward again after she ended our friendship and she doesn't understand how I can be acting like nothing has happened and just go on with my life like business as usual. Well, okay....its internet. Not like I was going to marry her lol. Maybe she took our relationship way more seriously than I did. I really think she is trying to get a response from me and is upset that I won't play along. I don't know if I should continue what I am doing and hope she gets bored with trying to get even with me or if I should contact her and say enough is enough. Any advice would be appreciated.
