Girl I like called me buddy?

[Anonymous]

I have known this girl for a year now. We talked and I we have chemistry. She gives me signs that she likes me, but then again she's extremely friendly. The only reason I havnt been making my move was because she's been dating this real douchebag. Recently they broke up and while we were talking she just called me buddy. What does this mean? This is the second time she called me that. The first time I brushed it off. Should I make my move? Is her calling me buddy a bad thing?

It's just a pet name that doesn't mean anything. Some guys will say she's "friend zoning" you by saying that but this is not true. Girls can often call their crushes names like that too. When you say recent, how recent? Cause if it was less than 1 month ago, it's too soon to be making serious moves.

Yeah too soon to even be thinking of asking her out.
