Was she right to respond like this?

[Amonynous]

So a girl asked me why i wanted to make friends with them,
I jokingly replied that I only make friends with anyone whose name begins with E, that i have a friend called Erica, Emma, and Ellie. But i also want an Emily.

They replied calling me a creep and walked away angrily

It's kind of weird, like it can make me think you are collecting girls

[Amonynous]

[Cutea]

[roy_ricky09]
