one play threw did ash in me1 and tali on me2 so in me3 when i did the first quarian geth mission. tali told ash it was good to have her along and ash said something like are you sure about that in a tone was different and i liked. Ashley isn't as hurt if you did tali by the sounds of it too
It's quite easy to explain why Ash doesn't feel that much hurt if you romanced Tali in ME2: Ash knows and likes her, and I always imagined the two like siblings. Seems BW did the same with those two. On the other hand: Ash is really hurt if you go after Miranda (Cerberus Operative!!!) or Jack (she calls her a "tattooed punk" or something). Maybe because Ashley doesn't know those two ... ?
She has never seemed to be bothered by Tali's presence, maybe because she knows what it feels like to not be excepted by others just because of your name. Ashley didn't get the respect she deserved because of the name "Williams", Tali doesn't get respect by other species because of the name "Quarian". That and Tali doesn't have a personality that seems to clash with Ashley's really.
Miranda on the other hand...She's a strong presence just like Ashley, works/worked for Cerberus and comes off as arrogant to those that don't know her. Doesn't seem like someone she'd easily like.
Jack is someone who doesn't care about regulations, rules, which have always been an important aspect of Ash's life. She's not someone Ashley would easily trust, if ever.
If Ash were ever to grow close to those two, it would take A LOT of time and luck.
