t seems Sunset mistakenly believed that since she didn't treat Wallflower with any meanness but largely ignored her instead, she never hurt Wallflower in any way.

Which wasn't mistakenly on Sunset's part at all. Something to to be more aware of, sure, but nothing she actually did wrong considering the circumstances. She didn't do anything wrong to her that everybody else didn't also do. It isnt her responsibility to notice people nobody else notices either.


 
Once Wallflower joined the yearbook club and had the stone, it became a different situation. She was NOW in proximity with the one she envied/hated the most, but also with friends impossible not to notice her like Pinkie or Fluttershy. Yet, she was not forming any bonds or memories with them, and thus was likely erasing awkward interactions constantly with them. Each reset interaction with Sunset was going to be neutral, cause, as a lot of us have pointed oit, erasing memories is not conducive to forming bonds and relationships other then indifference...one needs time to form feelings about a person beyond indifference, **which Wallflower did not understand she was unwittingly denying Sunset and the others**, thus making her assessment of Sunset pretty much bogus.


 
Wallflower was being entirely self sabotaging at that point, even though her experiances before the yearbook club were non artificial. (You don't need to keep repeating it, +__we know+__ her isolation before the stone was non artificial, but it doesn't matter even though it does in her head, everyone was guilty of being indifferent to her. It does not deny the different situation while in the yearbook club)

From Wallflower's perspective, though, Sunset ignoring her isn't just because she doesn't take notice of her (as is the case with everyone else); Sunset, in her eyes, is intentionally exhibiting the same behavior as back in the bully days towards her. This, then, becomes proof in Wallflower's mind that she hasn't really changed and thus doesn't deserve all the attention she is receiving. [/bq]



 
Exactly. This had nothing do with Sunset on a personal level at all. This was all about Wallflower's issues, how her issues worsened in a self destructive manor with the stone, and how Sunset became the villain in her mind that she could expose. It was all Wallflower's issues, nothing else.
 
Her skewed perspective was a result of years of simply being unnoticed or treated indifferently by everyone including Sunset, knowing about Sunset and having it be the ultimate contradiction to her, and a series of magical resets with her yearbook club who didn't know her at all that formed fake proof in her mind about Sunset.
