Interesting question. In China, when a woman says ”we’re good friends,” it generally means she considers you an acquaintance or a friendly person, but it doesn’t typically imply romantic interest or a desire for closeness beyond friendship. It certainly doesn’t usually mean ”leave me alone.” However, context and tone matter a lot if she seems uncomfortable or is giving signals to respect her space, it’s best to interpret her words carefully and give her some distance. Always pay attention to non-verbal cues and her overall behavior to understand her feelings better. Hope I answer to your question

It does, thank you! My western brain sometimes has trouble with the ambiguity and subtlety of Chinese communication, especially for relationships. In that instance I may have been too pessimistic.
