I mean she did tell you to kick rocks, in so many words. No one wants to be friends with or even interact with someone they consider to be a stalker, let alone their stalker. She called you a stalker which implies she doesn't want to be around you without saying so, many times people will avoid being so blunt about stuff like that for fear of retaliation. She was hoping you'd pick up on the hint that she doesn't want to be friends without having to confront you about it directly.

I'm not passing any judgement, I think you were right it was a bit of a miscommunication on both ends; she wasn't entirely clear and you missed the implications of her message.
