Sure she can. She would have to sue you in your jurisdiction and she would have to prove her case. The fact that she can sue you, does not mean she will win.

Ok, I'm certifiably confused here :confused:

The way I read your question, your lady friend wants to buy you a computer as a gift and you don't want the gift. So I don't understand why she would be threatening to sue you.

Is it because she purchased the computer despite being told you didn't want it, you refused it, and now she can't return it for a refund herself? Is she now saying she is going to sue you for the value of the gift because she can't get the money back herself?

A gift is a gift. It is given with no obligation to the receiver. That means that if the gift item was purchased but refused by the intended recipient, then there is no financial obligation to the intended recipient, as there never was such an obligation created in the first place.
