Thanks all for the validation. It feels like the right thing to do, but I can't ever be sure these days.
PM - I have distanced myself as much as I think humanly possible. I only talk to her if she calls me (with the exception of last Thursday) and I haven't been picking up the calls right away. I'll usually call her back hours or even a day later. I haven't seen her in close to a month. So, in hind sight, I can see where asking her to dinner for her birthday would be like asking her out on a date. I got her some presents too, and now I'm debating on whether she'll get them or not. I think that I have to give her at least one because she knows that I got her at least one thing. This is so hard and confusing.
