What does it mean when…?

[Anonymous]

A woman tells me to be careful driving home in the rain or tries to reassure me that I am not in trouble with someone else. Or if she talks like she is afraid of physically hurting me. Or how about when I offer to give her my phone number and she ends up handing me her phone so I have no choice but to call my phone? What about when she smiles, blushes, and makes long eye contact with me. She even blushed when asking if she was going to see me the following week?

She has romantic feelings for you and likes you, or cares about you in a way

Thank you. Your opinion proves I have been right all along. I would like your opinion on this same woman, but it is complicated and a lengthy scenario. Do you mind?

[CarolinaJones]

Sure! I don't mind

I am bi-polar and have been doing great on my crazy meds. I have interacted with a woman several times through her job and we have gotten to know each other a bit. And no, she isn’t being nice because it is part of her job. She has really gone out of her way to express her interest in me. I have been texting her, after her handing me her phone, after I offered her my phone number, I then dialed my number from her phone, there by getting her number. I jokingly once admitted to being on crazy meds weeks before exchanging numbers. She is going through a tough time right now and not ready to progress the relationship and not responding back because she isn’t ready. I have been describing to her what kind of person she can expect from me, and also writing her little funny stories to cheer her up. Nothing I have texted her was punctuated with a question mark. I have texted her off and on since January, now being April, with enough time between text as not to blow up her phone. However, this last text basically described why I am interested in her and that just because I am on meds doesn’t mean I am crazy. Well, she blocked me. I am trying to be positive and feel as though she is using the nuclear option to check my true self. I feel she wants to be sure I don’t do anything crazy, after being blocked. Most guys would get pissed, call or text from another number, show up at the girls job all panicked and so on. I am stable enough not to be “that guy”. Is her blocking me a good sign? Once she realizes I am stable, will she contact me or unblock me to see how I treat her?

[CarolinaJones]

It seems like she honestly cared about you; however, she had a harsh time and is trying to cope with it. Out of frustration or stress she most likely blocked everyone in her contacts and deleted her social media accounts, and needs time to focus on herself. Have you heard anything else about her?

[Asker]

Not yet. I believe she still wants to date me and will eventually unblock me or text me. She isn’t the kind of woman to block me out of anger. To be honest, she has a one year old and I know this has a lot to do with her not being ready. Do you believe in this whole shit testing theory? Is she trying to see if I lose my shit due to me being bi-polar? I am in no way offended and totally understand why she would need to.

[CarolinaJones]

I do not believe she is testing you. I believe she is conflicted at the moment. Has she replied to your texts or ignored them? She may have gotten "scared" about you blowing up her phone.

[Asker]

No. She has not replied to any. If I have only texted her like one week here or wait two weeks or even a month, is this still blowing up her phone?

[CarolinaJones]

No, that's not blowing up a phone, it's more like constant texts within a small amount of time. I would says she probably lost interest in you since she didn't bother to text you back, and moved on. It's been months now, it's been a long time, if she was interested still then she would have replied or said something.

Ok. Thank you for your opinion.
