Why does it feel that just when I feel that I'm doing something right, I feel that something I did set things back?

Process:

1.) Unable to make a decision on how to relate to 'A'.
2.) My friend recommends actions that are too pursuing for me.
a.) I become uncomfortable, afraid, and anxious.

3.) 'A's actions give me mixed messages--I'd like to have you closer and available, but when I am, he runs away.
a.) When I respond to a message he gives, he seems to disappear.
b.) It's almost as if he's afraid.
c.) I'm usually nice and polite. Would I get a closer response if I ignored him?

4.) He said he is coming to the store on Thursday night. I won't be working. I would love to see him, but he didn't ask me anything. He initially asked me, but now I'm confused.
a.) I used to offer my help. Now, I think I have to wait to see. I want to see him, but think it might be better to try to see what he does if I'm not available.


I'm tired and confused.
