Care to share more details? Gym, cooking and music just sound super generic, but maybe I'm already too old to get some cues

Super generic. I'm apprehensive and avoid jumping into a date. She acts pretty interested, but at one point asks for a gift card. I'm already ambivalent, and this is a red flag.

So I go for it anyway (already seeing her in the friendzone, and consider the money acceptable to waste), find out she does not have any way to recieve it and it would costs extra. I think screw this, not worth it. She says she won't force me to if I don't want to.

Then goes 160° and says "why are you being so stingy", "I asked you because I consider you a good friend" (we barely meet), and "just buy the giftcard". I was basically only keeping the dating option open on principle that I should give everyone a chance, and was fine with friendship.

But that was one hell of a red flag, and when I lost contact for other reasons, I just didn't want to contact her for some more potential manipulation.
