I sometimes acknowledge people with a smile if we keep ending up at the same lights, or see each other on the commute a few times. Sometimes a bloke does take it as an invitation. Then I have to worry about avoiding him on the commute for a while, or whether I need to take a detour home so he doesn't follow me.
So I can totally understand why she's not comfortable. It's not about you, it's about not wanting to get into a situation which is at best uncomfortable and at worst dangerous.
