i wrote a script that pings me the second my Bumble match logs into Steam so i can time my texts perfectly. thoughts?

ok context, I'm a software dev so my brain immediately went to 'this is a scripting problem.' been talking to this girl (28f) for about 3 weeks, we haven't met up yet cause of scheduling. so I wrote a little python thing that scrapes her Steam friends list and pings my phone the second she shows online, so I know exactly when to text and look effortlessly casual about it. worked great, my response times were insane, felt like a genius honestly. then last night she goes 'do you have some kind of tracker on me lol' because I always text within like 90 seconds of her logging on. I panicked and said no. now I dont know if I fess up that I built literal stalkerware for a Bumble match or just quietly kill the script and hope she forgets. told my buddy in our discord and he said this is 'unhinged behavior' and I said its just automation, theres a difference. need outside opinions before I text her back.
