puddles asked to come over to my house, then almost immediately wanted to leave. i told her to stay, played a game with her, talked to her 30+ times across every room of my house, and showed her multiple items. she won't leave.
is she not going to because i asked her to stay? do i have to leave first?

EDIT: of course she left within 30 seconds of me posting this. thanks for embarrassing me puddles.

Yeah, it's pretty much random on when they want to leave. I've had villagers come by unannounced, give me an item when interacting, and stay for less than a minute before wanting to leave. Other times, I was the one that had to "force" them to leave because I got so bored of waiting. Either way, a "do not disturb" feature would've been nice when this scenario came back from New Leaf.
