That's probably all it was in the first place but someone misinterpreted it and it became a full blown romance in her mind. DUmmies get clingy, whiny & dependent. Maybe it spooked him.

Yup. That's exactly what I was thinking.
Shortly after college, I had been dating this girl for a couple months who was still in college, which was about four hours from my house. In that short 2 month period, she decided that we should get engaged, married, have kids, etc. Even finagled her way into meeting my mom by showing up when I was out to lunch with her. Needless to say I wasn't driving the four hours to break up with her in person for a relationship that only existed in her mind. I called her, and she wouldn't answer cause she knew something up was up, so I ultimately went with texting her. Needless to say, that summer when she came back from school, I had a bit of a stalker, constantly showing up at the bars/places she knew I frequented.
And surprise, she was a liberal.
