You were right to ask her to take one of the empty lanes.
When I see someone eyeballing my lane and there are others with only one swimmer in them I try to encourage them to choose one of the other lanes by hogging the whole lane with a good strong Butterfly set. Scares them away every time.
When I do have to share or circle the regulars know that I will just swim down the middle when I need to pass them. Most of them don't pass eachother so that leaves the middle of the lane for me. Thankfully that does not happen often.
