I totally understand wishing she had said "Come back and let's try again." I'm struggling here because I really want to support you. I know how hard it is. And I don't want to say, yea, same thing happened to me, and guess what her response was; it's even worse. Having said that helps me get back to you.
I understand it how it feels good that she acknowledged you, and responded to you. I wished that for a long time. I wonder if it it feels bad because the rest of her is distancing again - at the same time she responds. It seems kind of a confusing to me? Although it does seem it could be better than no response at all? Is it?
BTW, I don't think it's the client's job NOT to be attached, obsessed, in love, neurotic, panicky, needy. I realize that can happen, and it's good to recognize what were are doing. But that's what therapists are for and it happens all the time. NOthing you have said sounds really strange or unusual. Is there something more?
