give the impression

I've alway heard 'get or have the impression that' but is it correct to 'give the impression that'?

She was all over him all night. She's gave the impression that she was into him.
She was on him all night. She's gave the impression that she was into him.

Which is natural?
To be all over someone or to be on someone?

Thank you

“I’ve always heard …”
“She’s given…” (meaning She has given.)

Colloquially, being ‘all over someone’ is to overly protective or loving. It is behaviour unsuitable for public places.
However, it is preferable to “She was on him all night.”
