Don't assume its something you've done. She could find you "creepy" for any number of valid/invalid reasons. Maybe her friends have criticized her for flirting online, maybe you have different tastes/opinions on something with she has reacted strongly to, maybe one of your emails came on too strongly for her, maybe she suddenly became interested in someone else and wants to end quickly what she thinks is flirting with somebody else.... maybe she's just psycho.

Confrontational emails, that only serve to vent your frustration at her unwillingness to fully explain her feelings, will only serve to increase her perception of "creepiness". I've made the same mistake and in retrospect it only made me look "needy".

My new philosophy would have me reply in a more positive light: that I didn’t know they felt that way and that you regret the situation but will respect their wishes.

That's my 2 cents for what its worth.

"I'm sorry, but please don't take this personally. The fact is that in
addition to being as busy as I am, all my conversations and e mails are
monitored by my parents, so what I can and cannot say or what is said
to me
is rather restricted, and you seemed to insist on steering the
conversation
into regions that could potentially get me into trouble. I honestly
didn't
know how you would react to being told as much, which is why avoidance
was
the easier way to go. I did not mean to offend you.

However, I truly hope you are well and I am glad you're pursuing your
military career; its by no means a bad path to take."

Im not replying to her.

the first message where it was something about me that made her freak out, then the second where it was her parents, is far too twitchy for my taste.
