She's crushingly touch starved. Depending on her characterization here, it seems likely she'd latch onto the first person she can touch even if they weren't interested. He didn't have to do anything manipulative, just proving he can touch her was going to be enough.
It might even be cruel not to reciprocate. He's literally the only person in her whole world she can touch. Imagine her knowing that there was someone she could hug, even just that, and they weren't interested. And it's not like she's some delicate wallflower in need of protection. Aside from the minor deities of the X-men universe, she's one of the most powerful individuals in the world. And she's just a touch away from being any of those people as well.
Aye, and that can be achieved just as well from the friend zone.
