I am the autistic Bill Clinton.... yup (lolololololololololololololol)
I would kill to have someone be as accepting of me as you are of her.
This sounds horrendously cute - but id tend to agree with what others have intimated at... Alice may not know she is doing it, (I've been told I have done this before... been the flirter, but thought I was just being friendly) and also the mindblindedness - she intends to flirt with you, but cannot imagine how this makes you feel.
I'd think a conversation with HR is in order, just to cover your own backside - though I feel its a shame. My aforementioned friendliness wound me up in-front of HR - I was devastated by this.
I get the impression she doesn't understand "sexy" or how to do it but is trying to attempt it.
Her behavior sounds like it is more reflexive, if she doesn't even realize that she is doing it or its impact.Maybe you can find a way to have her read about asexuality without knowing it came from you. It's just that if she is an ace who thinks she's straight, it could be extremely liberating for her to find out. Speaking as an ace who was gaslit into believing literally everyone was allo and spent my youth with some kind of obsessive flirting disorder.
A lot of her interactions come across as showing off and general attention getting. Yes, that could very well be still be flirting. I get the impression she doesn't understand "sexy" or how to do it but is trying to attempt it. It feels like a teenager trying to get the attention of her first boyfriend.

Yes, you need to check out this random site l came across last nite ,(as l was in bed with my wife) as l was on my phone. There are no similarities between me and David H, but he could be my brother.
She likely does not understand sexy or even what flirting, but is attempting it. Autistic females often emulate others, from books, television, videos and movies. As that is the way they think females act in real life situations. It's possible that she has learned all of these mannerisms from media. Some autistic females, learn from other peers when growing up, they copy them. The way they dress, speak, and act.
Frankly, so you do you.
