Seller showed. Is my agent out?
Newbie, trying to get my first house.
Saw an interesting REO property recently, and in an attempt to be low maintenance for the buyers agent I had been talking with about REI in general (no brokerage agreement tho) I called the selling agent and just asked to see the house. Figured I'd bring my buyers agent on board if the house looked promising. After the showing, the sellers agent said she would become my agent and her broker would become the sellers agent—since she "showed me the house". Is that hard and fast true? Did I mess up? I don't like the conflict of interest scenario she's presenting.
Advice/admonishments welcome please.

@Tommy Cangelosi @David Nacco.
Thank you for the feedback. Lesson learned. Will be reaching out to my buyers agent and working this out. Really appreciate the candid replies.
