I have been seeing a woman who is very overly accommodating to me. She dotes over me and seems to like me a lot. She recently finalized a divorce and I feel like I am being made into and instant replacement husband. It seems like a red flag and I am not sure I feel the same intensity as she does with the relationship. She also mentions things she wants to do, and when I tell her I have other responsibilities that I need to attend to, she persists until I eventually go along. I feel like I am being pushed around. Not sure how to handle not feeling the same way about her, in light of my depression and inability to hold the boundaries I try to set. I don't want to string her along if my heart does not want the same things she wants. Uhhhg!

Good thing you see the warning signs. The attention she is giving you may have felt good initially, but it sounds like it is starting to feel suffocating.

Just stay honest with yourself and you will be guided to do what is right for you.
