The never ending conversation

So, I was talking on the phone earlier with a woman I went out with last weekend. She's a nice enough woman but she needs almost constant reassurance that I am interested in her.

Her: You aren't attracted to me are you?

Me: What?!? Where do you get that from?

Her: Well, are you?

Me: What have I done to indicate that I'm not?

Her: You think I'm crazy, don't you? I just need lots of reassurance that you're interested.

Inside, I'm thinking--would I have made plans for a second date if I weren't interested? Would I call you if I weren't interested? But I realize that maybe she's a bit neurotic, so I try to reassure her a bit...and it works until five minutes later we're in the same conversation AGAIN.

And I've got to be honest here--it's making her less and less attractive all the time. I don't want someone who is completely stuck on themselves, but I do prefer at least some confidence in yourself....

Is that just too much to ask?
