So, I felt I was getting the run around. I took a good hard look at this relationship. I was boarding on needy. I pulled back immediately yet tactfully. She even said things along the lines of "you're quiet". I laughed it off and didn't make a big deal of anything.
Asked her to do something and she had plans already. She apologized and said she knew she was annoying me lately. Again, I laughed it off and said I wasn't looking to get into a fight over it. No big deal.
I haven't heard from her since. More importantly I haven't tried to follow up with her after she couldn't make time for me. This leads me to the sick theory that she actually liked the neediness, which goes against everything here. I'm ashamed to think I've been nothing but an ego boost to this woman and when I stopped doing that and stopped taking her seriously, she checked out.
Anyway, I feel like I can't win. Too much attention and I'm being used. Too little and they bail. I'm tired of the drama. I guess the most important thing I've learned here is the NO woman is a special case or unique. They're all pretty much the same.
