She Needs More Time or She is Toying Me?

So I met my crush in person two weeks ago. We exchanged contact and have been in contact over Whatsapp (texts). She is an introvert, has been hurt from the past relationship, and has been giving mixed signals. I need the ladies' help to decode her signals if she needs more time or she is toying me.

Some promising signs of flirting:
1. She has been replying my texts and when she is not occupied she will text back immediately throughout the day.
2. She dishes out compliments.
3. Her texts are engaging. She writes long text and uses a lot of emojis and gifs.
4. She puts efforts in her responses with lengthy replies.
5. She replies me first thing in the morning and before going to sleep.
6. She asks open-ended questions to keep the conversations going.
7. She shares her stories and pictures about her day.
8. She tells me about her plans, life goals, and family.
9. She listens and remembers small details about me.
10. She apologised for being gone and lets me know that she will be busy.
11. She teases me.
12. She starts changing her routine to communicate with me more often. She also mentioned to me that she has not been so emotionally engaged with WhatsApp before knowing me.
13. She shows concerns i. e., asked me to be careful when running alone at night.

Not so promising signs:
1. She tries to avoid some personal questions about relationships, family, and herself.
2. Although she seems open to dating with me, when I asked her out she flaked out. However, she didn't turn down the invitations (but didn't commit to the invitations either).
3. She rarely initiates contact but i communicate with her almost everyday.
4. She is being secretive i. e., Sends “View Once” photos over WhatsApp.
5. She is less engaging when she is not at home and might ignore my texts sometimes in this case.

I am not sure if my crush is using me as a backup guy or she needs more time to figure out her feelings for me. Your advice is highly appreciative.

Thank you.
