First post, and this seems like the right place to ask for input:
Pre-cursor: she displayed extreme signs of interest, would constantly follow me around, initiate contact, asked me out to drinks, etc. then it dropped off after we had already gone out a couple of times and hung out a few times (one on one).
** Didn't kiss on close either the date or the second time we had a date-ish event but did keep performing Kino escalation but she didn't really reciprocate aside from bumping into my arm a few times.
Then she tried to make me jealous, gave me the cold shoulder, and a couple of major blow offs, so I cut her loose as it was obvious she was playing games or just flat out not interested. Now she's constantly hovering around me, leaving people she was talking to be next to me, staring at me then looking away quickly when I catch her doing it, if I move somewhere she'll move there, and certain points completely lock gaze for a few seconds give a smile then look away, etc.
However, she won't initiate conversation and if I initiate she'll either be completely caught off guard and try to scramble sentences together or just completely act aloof.
I've pretty much just ignored her games, didn't let them phase me, or when need be just walked away and left her to face the situations she brought on herself alone (or her if the situation requires) till now simply because I figured giving a reaction - such as calling them out seemed over the top at this point of the interaction and shows too much concern.
What's the best way to curb this for the foreseeable future? It's becoming boring (not to mention has been going on for way too long) and preventing the interaction from progressing to something worth while.
** Yes I know I should have kissed on close - before the wave of messages come in saying that; but right now that's in the past - the question is how do I recover from it and stop the games.
