<human>: Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?

We have been very close friends who have a deep bond and strongly drawn to each other for ten years, but never single at the same time nor really in the right place in our lives.  As she's gotten older she's settled down a bit more and become even more fond of me, lamenting that she wished her boyfriends were more like me, treating her well and being more reliable and stable.  Recently we got together and it was so amazing; we were both so happy and started making life plans together.  I gave her so much attention and affection but it overwhelmed her and she got distant then broke things off after a month.  She said I was trying to "cage the butterfly", which I still don't fully understand.  We're back to being friends but there's still some tension and I'm very heartbroken over her.  She tells me that she's just "fucked up" and needs time to "figure my stuff out."

Help me understand her mentality.  Is it just that a woman who is so used to being treated poorly will react negatively to a man who treats her right, even when she perpetually complains to want that?
