Girls, Why would a girl ask me questions about the person I told her I like?

[forgetnforfeit]

She is my friend and I was asking her for some advice about if I should travel to another state to see her. But she goes to ask about my crush's race, age, name, hobbies too.

She could be just curious. I would ask my friends such questions just because boys rarely share their thoughts about girls and relationships. And I am curious about their point of view and how their brain works.
Although I would ask the same questions to female friends...

She could be asking to see if you two would be compatible together.

[forgetnforfeit]

that may be true.

She is either nosey, has a crush on you, or is trying to see how compatible she thinks you and this girl are.

Maybe she's just curious or making comparisons
