maybe she genuinely wants to be friends with you, women often want that when they're not interested in a romantic relationship with someone; but if that is not something you want then she should respect that; if she keeps talking to you then tell her again that you don't want to be her friend and ignore her from that point forward (it kinda sounds like she likes the attention she's getting from you, but I don't know her and that is not a very nice thing to assume)
didn't ask for anything; I have a list of things that I plan to buy for myself and I just share it with my family when they ask me what I want; it's mostly books and plants though
maybe you'll find someone who hates being around people too and she'll give you space instead of being clingy; wouldn't that be nice? I believe there are people who will stay single forever (e.g. me), but those aren't the ones who actively want to be in a relationship
and here I though he turned a new leaf ;_;
