First of all, thanks for taking the time out for such a detailed response.

The other thing I noted, in your post was you mentioning having become angry, passive-aggressive, or defensive at various points in your communication with this person. This suggests to me the possibility that you may perhaps be trying a bit too hard and hoping for too much too soon?

Yes that I agree with. I overreacted and that is what I apologized for to her. I mean I still don't think it was right for her to say we are not friends. There was clearly a connection. I am not implying that she was romantically interested in me, but it didn't feel like just acquaintances to me. However, as you said, a good faith apology can't hurt and so I apologized.

The other thing you asked was with regard to what you should do now. My thought on that subject would be that, at this point, you have to respect this person's request that contact between the two of you be limited to group calls. Anything more, at this stage, would probably come off as being intrusive and potentially just make matters worse.

Yeah makes sense. The funny part is some other members of the group got into an argument and the group basically dissolved. She also cut off some other members of the group (apparently for behaving like men always do). So, there might me something more going on with her than I know.
However, I am interested in reflecting on the fact if I am also behaving in the "way that men do". Probably this one incident is too little information to know these things about me, but still, I would like to know what you (or others) think in this regard.
