Hi JayAlex. I see why the dynamic would be confusing and sad for you. I think it may be helpful to take things at face value here. She pulled back. Sent a short note and didn't reply to yours. I would leave her be at this point. If she wants to contact you, she knows how to reach you. You may or may not hear from her again...may want to prepare yourself for the latter possible outcome.
I think for you to try to read her mind or evaluate her actions could burn your energy without giving you any peace or insight. What about you? How are you doing? Do you have a support network to help when you are depressed...other more steady friends to talk with? Peace to you
