I don't wish to burn the bridge between us, just retract it a bit.

Out of curiosity, how many other friendships do you have besides this woman? If this is a situation where you have few other social or emotional outlets, you might have been reading more into your experiences with her.
You could be right. I don't have any other friends whom I see or talk to on a regular basis.

This is a problem, get regular friends. Let them be male friends for now.

I'm not sure I want any friends at this point in my life.

Frankly, this will prevent you from entering a romantic relationship. Separating from meaningful social interactions will kill that.

Well, you continue to hang out with her. If it was not for friendship, what was it for? Sex?

If you want a female companion, friendship will always be the basis of the majority of the relationship. Sex will be minor, and less important with every month. So if you're not a friendly person and more of a loner, you will struggle in this category.
