Yeah, I know it is a little odd that I am avoiding her, but trying to figure what in the world happened. I had just never seen this level of odd. I am sure in a few years, I will laugh about it. Right now though, it is all just so weird and i am at a loss. I probably should have listened to my overly honest coworker back in July. She flat out said she is odd enough that she would be hard to understand and would drive somebody crazy... Until now, I did not know that somebody that could be ultra comfortable around me, but ultra uncomfortable as well. I try to internalize what I do wrong with relationships (whether dating, friendships or etc). In this case, I hate to just write her off as odd, but nothing makes sense.

I have never met or been around somebody that was so secretive that we hung out...didn't want her people around and didn't want to acknowledge me when she saw me in public. Yet, she was all in my space when we were together, mimicked me, sought out my attention and continued to set up the one on one environment, but not say anything (literally) when we got to that one on one environment. I never did have a relationship with her, but I feel like I gave as much energy trying to figure her out. My coworkers just thought it was odd. Given there was a stretch that we were hanging out so much and she was acting the way she was, a few of them asked if we were dating. They had no idea how to approach her, because we were not, but the way she acted and talked about me to them, you would have thought we were.

I do know that she has an ex that she goes back and forth with a lot. Apparently, they have done that since high school...Back together for a month, gone... Had I known that from the start, that would have put up a red flag and I would not have pursued her. That could also explain why she goes back and forth with how she interacts with me.

As for the email, with what my job is and the content of the email, there isn't really much of an option to forward the one on, even if it is weird that she was contacting me.

But, I am reinforcing barriers.... Not inviting her to things...not responding to texts...etc.
