Radically different behavior from one minute to the next. It seems to be directed at single men in general (not just me). And you know what? That's fine! I don't care if she has issues with men, I just wish she had revealed that before expressing interest in me instead of after

Yeah, if that's the case I'd like to know what it is so I can work on it. But since I haven't ever had another girl switch like this on me before I'm guessing it's probably not anything I did.

If anybody is coming across as "psycho", it's the OP. Definitely focusing way too much on this speed bump.

Ah yes, there will always be the guys who think a girl is psycho when the dominoes don't fall according to plan.

Ever thought that maybe she's just not that into you anymore? It happens!

FYI, since relationships between 2 people involve - wait for it. . . 2 people, you are always involved and thus cannot shove the blame entirely on her. Cause and effect.

And apparently you do care to a certain extent if you're informing everyone on a public forum about the recent development. . .

Stop dating people's babies and you may find someone who is direct. If you can handle that.

Oh, I know it was a joke -- but again, someone who tells a joke like that is probably (1) trying to impress dates with his wealth and status while (2) refusing to disclose what he does for a living ostensibly for fear that his dates might become interested in him for his wealth and status. From personal experience, I know that older men dating younger women have a tendency to behave this way.

Nothing you said about her, in that thread or here, indicates that she is a "psycho". The only thing she did was change her attitude towards you. That alone does not make her a "psycho". Perhaps you just mistake friendliness for romantic interest -- and therefore the only way to make you stop making passes at her was to stop being friendly. That is something I also encountered in my personal experience.

No, it's because you brag about how you don't tell your girlfriends for months about what you do, and that you would dump a girlfriend the moment she asked. At the same time, I have no doubt that you make comments of the "Plaza Athénée" variety to them, so that would be hints about your wealth and status. As a forum user, I really don't care what anyone does for a living, except when they share professional experience or anecdotes. But in dating, a man who is inexplicably secretive about his occupation, but hints at being rich, would be a big turnoff.

Absolutely. She probably got turned off by something and doesn't have the grace to tell him.

So it's been a few days and I've gotten over the total shock at her behavior last week. I've had a bit of time to reflect and look at things objectively and I've come to the conclusion that she's insane I don't know what specific personality disorder fits the bill, but she is a radically different person from the one I met and was interested in as recently as the middle of March.

For the record she's gone from going way out of her way to be with me and rubbing up on me, to trying her best not to be in the same room when we're all together with friends.

Before anyone asks, of course I wondered if I said or did something to freak her out. Besides the fact that nothing like this has happened to me before, I certainly can't think of anything that could possibly explain a complete 180 in her behavior. But just to be sure I talked to one of her closest friends and she assured me not to take it personally, apparently she has some huge issues with men in general.

Wish I'd known that a little sooner

All I can say is thank god that train wreck veered away from me at the last second
She's probably in the middle of some menstrual cycle problems
