How do I know if this girl is into me?

[Anonymous]

So long story short me and this girl met on a dating app while we were both in a relationship (we said in our profile we were looking for friends). We got so close I started calling her “sis” and she would call me “hun”. Now we’re both single and we’re friends with benefits. We exchanged nudes and now talking about meeting up to get to know each other over dinner. The other day she asked me for a selfie to put in her contacts (I asked for one too) and she asked me to put on read receipts. Now we’re flirting like left and right and she’s saying things like “otayy”, “nooooo”, “stopp” (when I say she’s adorable), “heyyy”, etc. and the extra letters are confusing me cause I don’t know if she’s tryi mg to be cute? She also said “good night love bug 🩵” and sending 🩵 (which I reply with ❤️ or 😘). She asked me how I would feel about calling and I told her “I’d love to hear your voice”. So how can I know if she’s just being flirty or if she wants a real relationship with me? Thank you!

If someone only wants something casual with you, they don’t tend to do all that lovey-dovey stuff. The conversations is usually heavily sexual, the meet-ups are usually mainly about sex.

Since she’s asked you to go out for a walk and dinner, and she’s using pet-names, she’s probably interested in more.

Besides, women are more likely to want something more after sex than a man is anyway, especially if the sex is good, and especially if you’re doing non-sexual couple things. In this case she’ll usually bring it up.

The only thing that concerns me is that she’s been taking a while to reply sometimes. Like I’ll message her within a few minutes and she’ll reply maybe an hour and a half later or immediately. So is she just most likely busy or is she losing interest? She’s still using extra letters and everything. And in my last text I called her “honey” so should I see how she responds to that too?

[MrBadd]

What I will say is that she’ll lose interest if you act like a woman, and you’re thinking like one right now. Just assume she’s busy, and make yourself busy too. You should be too busy to be hanging around the phone waiting for her to reply.

You ask her out on a date.

We’re actually going out for a walk and dinner afterwards

Does she know it's a date?

It was actually her idea to go for a walk and dinner, so maybe she asked me out on a date? Should I ask her?

It would clear things up.
