Why would a girl mention another guy to me?

Anonymous
me and this girl were talking for like an hour straight when we first met, she told me she was single after something in the conversation prompting me to say i was single, but also later on said some guy was hot? now i’ve met her i’ve been talking to her on a daily basis but she mentions this guy every now and then and from what it seems like to me is that he’s trying to set a date? but i’m not sure.

i haven’t openly expressed that i find her attractive or anything and i don’t know if i should, she talks to me more than anyone else since she’s like just moved here 2 or 3 months ago.
she asks if she looks good or not sometimes and i just say “ i guess” or casually agree with her.

i don’t think she’s just being nice since most guys say she’s like one of the prettiest girls in our school and i never see her talking to guys or girls really i rarely see her talk to anyone other than me. she told me she’s shy but also told me about some guys who hit on her. why would she mention these guys?
