I think the best approach is not for her to push away the ones that she loves, but to push them away before they can get that close to her to begin with.
I'm writing a character like this. She's been bullied for all of the time she's been in school (the narrative starts when she's 17), and so every attempt to get close to her is taken as a scheme to glean more fodder for another round of bullying.
So when she is approached by a boy who is romantically interested in her, she is harsh and abrasive.
