Priorities man.
You're assuming that both choices are equal, in her eyes, except for distance.

I agree that there probably wasn't a spark and she either is using this guy as an excuse or she actually is into him despite the challenges.

She met him on an online dating site, flew up to see him once, but he was suffering some kind of depression, so she ended it.

Out of the blue she cancelled out date because she wanted to work on things with him, and "He would feel uncomfortable with her and I 'hanging out'".

As if he really gives a rats ass about what's going on with her on the other side of the country?

Anyways, I told her that it's a pretty crappy thing to do, but wished her luck (on the guy that's suffering from depression).

I mean, I can see it being local, but in a friggin' another country?
Would it be better if He lived across the street?

Deciding to pursue a guy in another country with mental health issues doesn’t sound wise. She probably just likes the idea of who she’s made him out to be in her head. Maybe she doesn’t want a guy who’s actually available to her. Some people are like that.

That's what happens when you buy market pizza and didn't put enough $$ in the tip jar on the first date.

I noted the irony of her going back to the guy who lives far far away. You cannot even call that a relationship.

I'm curious how invested she is with THIS guy that she met online only once. She probably is more familiar with me, than she is with him.
The fact that you have known each other for some time puts an entirely different slant on the tips thread. There, people piled on about the woman meeting you, her date, for the very first time, but bossing you around. And you did not correct a single soul.

Because of that, as well as your constant "isn't this woman crazy for absolutely no reason?" threads, woman after woman after woman, I'm going to assume you're not being wholly honest here either, and on that note I am out. Good luck. : )

Wow. Ugh I had not even thought of that.

I can't think of what to say except... yeah. I think that may be endemic to CDR.

I don't. If I did I wouldn't be here. There would be no point.

ThisTown, if you want real answers you need to ask real questions, so what is the whole story? Or, or you are simply disappointed because you liked this woman but she didn't choose you, and now you need support, or just because nothing seems to be panning out with all these women you mention, say that. Otherwise, we're all just piling on this woman and guessing, and how is that helping you?

I don't. How is it I'm not being honest? Also, what correction are you referring to? How is me having known her in the past have to do with anything? We weren't close buddies, but more casual acquaintences at previous social gatherings like board game night and out door related activities. Even took a weekend long trip to a beach group outing.

I mean, excuse me for not providing the details on her back story. But we weren't THAT tight. Just acquaintances that have spoken casually at events years ago and just reconnecting. I thought I may have mentioned that.
