No. In her world view, she's doing you a favor. A lot of apologetics that target believers with doubts or ex-believers are extremely insensitive. It's born out of a necessity for them to explain apostasy in conjunction with their all-loving God who sends apostates to be tortured for infinity years... because he loves them so much.
It's really uncomfortable to think about that, and it's much more comfortable to blame the doubter/apostate. Not only does it absolve their god from all wrong doing, they also can pat themselves on the back for being such good believers themselves.
Sorry to hear that she did that to you. It's best that you deleted it.
