I have walked in these shoes. They pinch something awful and the only way you feel better is when you take them off and let your feet (yourself) heal.
I'm saying this because you asked for feedback. I'd say the only "wrong" thing you did was putting yourself lower than this woman, and then continuing to seek connection when she said things that should have rpobably sent you packing. Reading it, I felt a sense of desperation from you - desperate to be a good friend and maybe to have a friend, I"m not sure. But with some people, clearly this person, they thrive when they feel one up.
In rereading it, do you see where maybe it would have been better for you to stop the conversation, and maybe the friendship sooner?
