For some reason I'm trying to wrap my head around this one when I should just forget it, but would like advice on how I should have played this.

Hit it off with a girl and escalated quickly, closed on the 2nd date and sex continued for a couple of weeks. One morning, literally hours after sex I get this text from her:

"So... I need to be honest... I really enjoy hanging out with you but I'm not looking for anything serious right now and it seems like we might be on diff pages. I'm not in a good place mentally and should have been honest about that. I'm down to hang out and have fun but this is where I am."

I responded with:

"So are we still fucking? ;) I'll be honest, I'm not about to dive into something serious. I'm having fun with you I'm down to keep hanging if you are and keep it casual. If not then I respect that and I'll say thank you for the little bit of fun we had."

Then the conversation went back to normal and I acted like nothing ever happened for the next week. There were 2 attempts to hang out that she flaked on, so I took the hint and went no contact. I had other dates lined up and took it as a plate falling off.

A week later she comments on my social media post of me on my boat. "Bring" just that one word. So I reply, "Bring what, some dick?" She replies: "On boat"... just being short. So I continue to just escalate and say "Dick on boat, got it, lets arrange that." She then basically calls me mean, that I always assume she wants dick and asks me why I stopped talking to her. My response was to tell her we needed some space.

My frame is now breaking down, and this is where I may have realized it was all a big comfort test that I failed. She says "You just didn't seem like you wanted to get to know me. Generally when I tell someone I'm in a bad place they ask why and don't ask if we're still fucking." My response was "I'm not perfect, we made it clear that this was going to be fun and casual. So yeah I would like to continue to get to know you and see where this goes." Just a weak response, and I'm now in her frame not mine. Convo continued awkwardly, she basically says she's not in a good place, wants to be alone, and that we can be friends.

So, at first I thought I was getting light switched and a plate was falling off. In the end, maybe I was just horribly failing a big comfort test. I have no idea and am just looking for feedback on better ways I could have responded. Or any good info on Comfort Tests.
