Went on a couple dates with a girl I've known for a few years. Made out pretty heavily on the last one. She would text me first pretty often and seemed really into me.

Eventually, she goes out of town on vacation for about a week. Doesn't reach out to me once, which was a little weird, but fine since I'd rather not waste my free time texting some girl all day. Once her vacation was over, I asked her out on another date and she tells me she can't make it.

Yesterday she tells me that she liked hanging out with me, but was confused about her feeling for another guy and eventually realized that she has feelings for him and that she doesn't want to "lead me on."

I basically said "no problem, tell him I said hi" and haven't said anything since.

Was this the right move? What did I fuck up in the process for her to stop seeing me for some beta two states over? Was it not texting her enough? I have no fucking clue, just don't want to fuck up like this again in the future.
