I think the OP is too thin-skinned and sensitive to be successful at online dating. You need a thicker skin to date online.

OP I've been re-watching a lot of Seinfeld episodes, and just today I watched the one with Jennifer Coolidge, playing a massage therapist Jerry was dating, and how George became obsessed with her not liking him and ended up chasing her down the hall at the end of the episode, to try and communicate with her. Your posts kind of reminded me of how George reacted and acted. This isn't a slam on you, it just seems to me that you need to let it go. We all get into situations with people where we need to let go for whatever reason. Obsessing over it does no good.

It seems to me that it's both: she does feel sick and needs a Covid test and she's lying. Some people just aren't comfortable breaking things off directly. She's probably one of them. It sucks that that might be the case, but it doesn't do any good to keep processing it. You've done that and it would be a good idea to try and wean off of overthinking it.

I'm wondering what other details have been left out. Perhaps after she agreed to go, she found out there's only one bed?

^I thought of that too. One time I was dating a guy and after about the third or fourth date he reserved a room at a very swanky, pricey hotel and ordered me to be ready for sex!

This was never even discussed nor did she ask but there are multiple beds/rooms in the unit.

You even calculated what skiing would run you versus a date in the city. Maybe this should be moved to frugal living on CD.

It was very forward of her to suggest the timeshare in the first place, IMO. If I were a guy, I would take her suggestion as a green light for a room with one bed, especially if she didn't even mention it. If she were concerned about it, and didn't want you to get the "wrong impression" she would have made it clear upfront.

YEAH! If that's the case, then you're no different than the man who spends a lot on dinner, and then expects sex in return...

Perhaps she felt that 'vibe' from you....

He COULD have said, "NO".

Well, from one woman's perspective (mine), I think there is something wrong with that. If you were "reading the room" and were reasonably sure you were going to "get lucky" on that trip it would be one thing. However, it was only the second date. Nowadays, people aren't as likely to engage in sex on the 2nd date. I think she got cold feet after coming to her senses and realizing that you were probably expecting sex, and she wasn't into it. It's like my other post just above, this guy I began dating suddenly ordered me to be ready for sex and I was like.... what?! He was not happy that he had already paid for the room, but he should have waited a bit to see if it was a real relationship!
