Ladies, can you decipher this? ?

Okay there’s this woman I’ve known for about 5 years but we were never friends, more like acquaintances. We’ve known each other through a young adult group. I don’t see her very often and when I do I don’t have much time to talk with her or it’s very difficult to because this young adult group is so large everyone’s trying to talk with each other so it’s hard to get her alone. I don’t have her number or anything like that. She was dating someone up until I think late 2018. He broke up with her and she told me she thought I would marry him. Well anyway, there was an event in 2019 and I did get to talk with her somewhat. After the event I added her as a friend and she neither accepted or declined the request, but get this, I have messaged her a couple times and she always responds to me. At this event I told her my age and I’m 8 years older than her. She is also on the same dating site as me and she recently came up as a match, meaning I’m in her preferred age range. Before we were both on this website and she never came up as a match, meaning she now adjusted her age range and I now fit that age range. So here’s what I’m thinking, she initially wasn’t interested in me because I was above her age range, but now that I am maybe she will reconsider me. I can’t say I’m really in the friend zone with her as we aren’t really friends. Also too, we haven't seen each other in like 2 years because of Covid. We saw each other for the first time in January since Covid and she was friendly and engaging to me, but we were in line getting food and we also didn't sit at the same table, so we couldn’t really talk. I’m guessing she isn’t adding me to Facebook as a friend because she thinks I like her romantically and she doesn’t want to give me any ideas or she really does like me and she wants me to ask her out. Lastly, we were both at an event and she was playing cards with other people at a different table and she smiled at me from afar three times.

Move on already find a girl that’s better for you

[Asker]

I was wondering, why are you telling me to move on? Based on my story do you think she’s not interested?

[Iron_Man]

Too many years she was going to get married already you don’t want to settle for the last guy remaining I don’t think she’s interested

[Asker]

Obviously it’s an issue of timing. Before she would not consider me because I was not in her age range. Maybe she put me in the friend zone after knowing me so long. We talked on Sunday for a few moments. She was friendly and inquisitive. I’ll think I’ll try to see how things go the next time I see and ask her out.

Have you ever had any kind of romance hold her hand snuggled

[Asker]

No none at all.

Put your energy into somebody that likes you that wants to be with you and have a relationship. Keep the girl as a buddy but MoveOn and have a relationship with a girl that does Appreciate you

Just shoot your shot and ask her out. If she says "I just like you as a friend", tell her to get a dog.

[Avicenna]

She gives no indication of romantic interest

Nope. This could mean anything.

Another thing too, she came up as a match for me on this website and I viewed her profile but she has not viewed my profile and it has been over a week. And she knows I viewed her. If she truly was attracted to me, wouldn’t she at least view my profile back?
