I don't want to romance Ashley. I won't go into why since I don't want this to turn into an "Ashley Hate Thread" or anything (*cough*actslikea****toliaraandaliens*cough*).
In the convo about kissing Turians : I didn't say "LOL Kiss me?"
In the convo about God : I said "I don't mind your faith." not "LOL I LUV GOD TOO."
When talking to Liara about relationships : I said I was NOT interested in Ashley OR Liara.
...
Later, talking to her after the third main-story planet before Virmire, she goes off about her grandfather and crap, and at the end I can't choose any option that says "No, I'm not interested." I'm FORCED to express interest in her.
Is this how it's supposed to work, or what?
WAT DO!?!?
NOT Romancing Ashley

well if you already sealed the deal which I can't tell you when then you should be able to turn her down when you are about to go to the final mission. If your not done with the romance talk with her them just don't talk to her no more and you should be fine

Ashley, I know this isn't the best time for this, but I think we should see other people. Well, I should see other people. You won't be seeing anybody. Toodles.

To not Romance Ashley you have to tell her shes out of line at some point then she sticks to a professional status.

I had a similar problem with Kaidan. Telling him he's out of line just made me sound like a total dick.
I think with Ashley, I might have said early on something about how I could see why she got all the crap assignments. Which was a harsher response than I thought it would be when I chose it. She wanted to keep it strictly professional after that.

This romantic thing should be very optional in games but Both Ashley and Kaydan are always harassing Sheppard with their obsession. They obviously never went in the army for real to ignore how to address a superior. The only way I found is to ignore them completely and never engage conversation. They have nothing interesting to say, anyway.

You need to turn the Ash romance off early or you won't be able to at all (at least in my games). The surefire way to turn it off is to say "You're out of line" in one of the first two conversations when she's questioning whether it's cool to have aliens on the ship. Shep actually says something like "Do you always second guess your superiors like this" which makes it clear to Ash that there will be no non-professional relationship between them.

But what if I want to be a guy and just be friends? Like the OP I have my reasons for not wanting to romance Ashley, but I also really like her character and cutting her off with the professionalism line seems like overkill.
Obviously there is nothing to be done about it now, as I already had the grandfather talk after which I realized that despite my never expressing any interest, there was no way to explicitly turn down romantic overtures and be a nice guy at the same time.

I hope this comment was sarcastic, you do realise that your avatar is Ashley dont you?

Not if she comes back in ME3 as robo-Ash (robo-**** more like), like Shepard, in order to "please" the fans.
I actually liked her character though, just like poking fun.

I had the same problem and had to go way back in the game and start again. There is one way (if you haven't gone past this stage) when you recruit Liara the next time you talk to Ashley she will ask you about Liara, from there you can tell Ash you're not intrested in her. First it will be something like "You think I'm only intrested in Liara because she's not official crew" when you tell Ash you're not intrested then go to see Liara and pick the dialogue option saying "yuck you're an alien" xD that worked for me.

Don't worry, she'll still become friends with you. You'll hear all the same stories you otherwise would The only difference is that you can't turn her paragon and when you overhear the call from her sister, the sister will comment that Kaidan is cute instead of Shepard. Also, this early path is the least jerky of an option. I do it on all my playthroughs where I want Ash as a friend and don't intend to kill her on Virmire.
