Just wondering. Someone did a complete 180 on me last week, shortly after I met her on 10/31. While she may not have been the lady of my dreams, I was attracted to her.
She said in the thanks but no thanks letter that she could not see at any point where she led me on to believe she wanted a relationship with me. Well, how does she explain this?

So, now you know all my secrets! You had mentioned in your last email that maybe you could help me get back into shape, S****, I would love that. Just knowing that you care enough to look past the scars and deformity and work with me is more than I could ever ask for. That would mean the world to me.
Well sweetie, I am going to send this to you hoping you’ll read it before calling me. Like I said, if you would like, we can talk more about it, but I did want you to know about it.
Thank you for being such a sweet, sweet person! I have been begging God to send me the right man and I know He is who sent you to me.
Smooches,


That was sent after a 2nd date.
Also, she asked on the same night..."Am I moving too fast for you?"

Again, am I crazy, or was she in her right mind to say.....her words...
Nothing that I said ever should have led you to believe I wanted to start a relationship with you. I could see from the very beginning that you did have hopes that there might be, but that came from your hopes
I feel like I'm losing my hopes and mind. This is too weird and not the first time.
There were a couple of other things that I left out that she said as well.
Advice appreciated, I need feedback? What you all have thought if someone said the 1st paragraph in bold to you?

A 2nd date???

No no no. You should not be thinking "relationship" at that stage of the game. I don't care WHAT she said.

You've been thinking about that since December? Are you still talking to her?

Why some people (men and women) send mixed signals can be from a variety of reasons. Some just like getting off from having the control and dropping someone I believe. Some are "shopping" and they got a better offer, so goodbye to what you've got to offer. Some get scared and bail. Probably as many reasons as there are people in relationships. Just be glad she did this bouncing quickly and not after several dates when you truly had time to establish a relationship. You may need to decide though what you'd say if she comes back with her first personality. People like that often do bounce back and forth with their messages.

Back away slowly. Smile and nod. And don't turn your back. This is woman is not one you want a relationship with.

Walk away. If you can't walk, run. If you can't run, FLY.

The whole thing sounds very codependent and needy on each side.

Lesson #1: You can't fix people
