I guess I find it hard to change bc I need a center or I feel out of control. People I look up to usually are that center. And indeed, she has helped me deal with personal stuff before. She even bought me drinks and lunch a few times.
But see, you again insist that you like doing or feeling something and that's why you do it. But adults don't behave like that. Adults recognize that even if they like something, they shouldn't do it if they were told by many people that's wrong. I understand it's hard to change but you don't have other options. Why do you argue? Do you think your behavior is acceptable and everyone else is wrong?

It's normal that she complained. I would complain about coworker if she if he behaved the way you described. And if I acted this way, people would complain to higher authorities etc It's your job. It's not a social place. Not like you bothered her at a party and she told on you to a neighbour. You must behave at work or people will complain about you. That's how it is. If she is a supervisor she likely is stressed and doesn't need more stress.

Please keep working on improving. Find something else to occupy your mind

PS I bought plenty of things to people in my life. It doesn't mean I want them to follow me around.
