I don’t believe she’s lying about doing the things up to when he decided to cut ties because she loves him however the reason why her behaviour is so warped is probably because of her own insecurities about herself and was projecting them onto him, consciously or not. Regardless of intent, it is not other peoples’ responsibilities to deal with your internal issues and what she has done is objectively wrong even if there were times malice was not the motivating factor. Even if she wakes up and makes an effort to change, it doesn’t change the fact she hurt him and he has every right to distance himself. Personally I’d hate to see them become friends again but from a general perspective it should be his choice to give her a second chance and be on good terms but not because he feels bad for her circumstances (if they give her a sad backstory) but because he’s seen she truly tried to change and is a genuinely likeable person now. But considering how long she’s been hurting him and how badly, I don’t think it’s worth the effort for him to stick out and hope she’ll change and I don’t think it would do her any good either if she knows there’s someone who’ll never give up on her regardless of whether she changes or not
