Why would a girl suddenly start acting much more affectionate and smitten?

Anonymous
I've been seeing this girl for the past few weeks and we've met up maybe 4 times.

It's been great, a couple of little blips but no deal breakers. Genuinely enjoyed spending time with her. It's been a little bit cat and mouse with neither of us seeming to want to come off too strong whilst both clearly liking each other.

The other night we had a bit of an awkward moment where things got a bit sharp, which for the most part I played it off but with making my feelings about it known. The next day she called me to apologize and we ended up talking on the phone for 2 hours.

She cried with happiness that I took the time to talk with her and said I helped her to feel better and many sweet things.

Ever since then she's been 100x more affectionate and doubled down on contacting me and trying to see me, even running into me on purpose to give me a big hug when she saw me in our mutual work building.

She asked me to walk home with her and grabbed onto me the whole way, staring at me with adoration, saying she wants people to see us together.

She has been affectionate before but never stepped it up this much.

I'm really not complaining, it's lovely but why would she suddenly become so strong practically overnight? I guess she fell for me? Haha.
