You were not direct in what you were feeling and she merely met you where you were at, or called your bluff. I would not call that manipulating you.

I thought I was direct. I told her what I felt and I also told her I thought it was a reaction to getting closer to her. I do agree she called my bluff and essentially ended it for me, but she knows me at this point and I think she must have seen that I was asking for help, like I said, and not manipulating. I'm not sure what kind of manipulation I would be doing anyway, since I don't like it when she shows verbal affection or her own attachment toward me.
