One of the casualties of the pandemic was a nascent dating relationship I started in the weeks before New Jersey went on shutdown. I am not sure where it was going long-term, but it held some promise. We tried keeping in touch once quarantine dropped but I (oddly) knew I had lost the thread about a week in when she asked me to pick her up and take her to the grocery store (she's a doctoral candidate at, let's just say, a prestigious local university and does not own a car but does use ride shares). When I explained that I was not comfortable doing so (I was experiencing a high level of anxiety at that point) she feigned understanding and shortly thereafter, disappeared.

Maybe your only value to her was to drive her around. Maybe you escaped another woman who only wanted to use you. I think if she liked you for your character, she would have kept in touch.
