Well, "Ok,bye" is much better than what some people get. She could have said, "Don't say that. You know I don't love you back." That's happened to others.
A kiss is good. Could you bring her flowers?

I sent flowers to her at her new job site saying how proud I was of her and that I know she'll do great. This was last Thursday. She said "they look pretty...thanks".
She may be feeling a little off balance since she is used to my normal routine which has changed completely. She may be feeling a bit of anger since I actually AM changing my behavior and NOT going into the same pattern as expected.
Have I thwarted her plans of getting rid of me by doing this?

Just keep up the good work! No matter what happens between you two, you are still helping yourself and trying to do better! Good for you!
