She came across as strong, loud and opinionated but not over the top, I liked this. She has a bf and I have a gf so I figured no dramas.I added her on facebook as I added a few people from class. She ended up changing schools and I tagged her in a few things that I knew she was interested in such as free tickets a sports game and she replied to the tag that she had them already.Next time I look she has unfriended me. I dont think I was over the top or overly strong with anything.I am confused. Is there things I am doing wrong or signs I can look out for?

Are you sure you liked her just as a friend and nothing more? Because that's an awful lot of thinking for just a friend, or in your case, an acquaintance. I think she got the feeling as well and didn't want any drama. Or as the other aunts have pointed out, maybe her boyfriend didn't like you speaking to her.
As always however, Facebook causes more drama than serves any real purpose.

Could be many reasons. The fact that you were "just" a guy she talked to and now doesn't as she has moved away from the area, so she didn't see the point in keeping you as a "friend".
Some people keep their "FACEBOOK friends" to a bare minimum and to people they ACTUALLY interact with in person. Others have tons of strangers.
Or her BF didn't like the idea of her chatting with other guys on Facebook.
I don't think you did anything wrong at all, she just made the choice to not keep as a "friend" on Facebook. It's not a big deal.

No point over thinking, she has and if you ask you will come across as being weird doing so.
Leave it and move on

If you have a girlfriend; it shouldn't matter to you that much.
Shrug it off!

So people are fine with the concept of men and women being friends. Most aren't. She interpreted your offer as a date. Maybe it would have been acceptable if all four of you did a double date. It's possible that his boyfriend saw the facebook posts and became alarmed that she had to unfriend you.
