I don't know, maybe it's just me, but were you horribly hurt by someone you cared for in the past? Every post you have put up has seemed like you think I should be afraid to even try and trust her. Living in fear of trusting people you are close to will only keep them distant.
I do see what you are saying though and I thank you for trying to warn me. I'm usually very good at reading people which is part of the reason I thought I could trust her. But if I start to get a weird vibe or her attitude change I'll keep this in mind.

You definitely don't want to just mail it to her because it could do more harm than good, as if you were stalking her.

Cimarron, as part of the counseling we had to write apology letters, but they didn't want us to mail them even through a secondary source. They said the letter may only end up causing the victim more pain. And to answer your first question this was an isolated event.
