I don't have a termination experience but I still wanted to respond.
I think you should call her and be as honest in your confusion as you have been here. You've worked together for 4 years...I just don't think this is how it should end. But it does sound a little bit like her feelings were hurt, although not knowing her, I'm not sure. As you've described it, it doesn't sound like she wanted to escape working with you, otherwise I would think she would have brought it up. Perhaps she was having a bad day or week? But I wouldn't leave it like this. It feels too undone.
My guess is that she was struggling with that fine line again...wanting you to chose what you really wanted and not wanting to point out what she might think you needed. And it does sound like she misread this whole thing. But it also sounds like you can learn a lot from this, especially if you force yourself to call and make another appointment.
Good luck. Welcome and I hope you update what happens.
