I think its important to remember that you're not required to react or respond in any way. If she keeps on insisting you can just smile and politely ignore everything she says. You don't have to say anything, really. This is more about her than you, I think.
Friends do and say stupid things all the time. Some time ago a friend of mine became completely obsessed with a woman who wasn't interested in him. He was borderline delusional and thought if he just said or did the right thing... In the end I understood I just had to listen to him babble until he wore himself out.
