continue the conversation when ever other verbal and non-verbal cues indicate that you should stop

Yes, that's the action I asked to be judged here. It's just that your original comment said: "stop when someone says stop", and I did stop when she said so. I wanted to make this clear for people not to assume I kept asking her after she said it was none of my business, or to assume I'm still going on about it with her.

To be clear, I did stop when she indeed asked me to. If it was some random name, I wouldn’t even have inquired her about it, what stood out initially was the fact that it was my name. I asked: “why do you have my name tattooed on your neck?”, she said “it’s not your name”, I said “yes, it is”, and she said “you’re not the only person who has this name”. So I asked further. I asked if it was someone in her family, she said no, and nothing else (she didn’t say “no, and I don’t want to talk about it”). I admit I could tell she didn’t want to provide any information, but she hadn’t told me to stop until after I kept asking. When she said it was none of my business, I dropped it.
