How can I tell if she’s somewhat interestedly? How do I determine if she isn’t just trying to be friendly?

I’m a boy and I’m in highschool. Last year I had a class with this girl who shares a lot of friends with me but I didn’t rlly get the chance to talk to. come to this year she says to them that she thinks I hate her. I soon contacted her on snap because we have no classes this year. We had a playful conversation and she kinda just dropped the accusations. She did admit to me however that she was just kinda scared/nervous to talk to me despite being kinda popular. After that we had a few more 2-3 hour conversations scattered over the time period of 2 weeks. She was telling our mutual friends I was sweet and funny too. One night at about 2 Am our mutual adds me to a ft before promptly leaving and letting us to talk for an hour or so. She began snapping me more often. Then we finally met at a school football game. My friends greeted me with handshakes and she said “how wholesome.” She was even listening into a conversation I was having with my friend and responding before he could. After that, we had a few more deep conversations switching between my life and her life. Conversations were always super eventful and she always responded with complex answers, but usually I started them. I even made sure I wasn’t bothering her and she always said that she would rather be talking to me then doing her hw or whatever. She had my contact from a gc and I found out that she had my contact as a unique nickname. I had her contact too but I was afraid to just randomly start texting her so I asked for it over snap and she gladly gave it to me. We were having a good conversation before I made a spelling mistake, fixed it, and she stopped responding. I asked her about it and she said she didn’t see it, but still didn’t respond. After that we continued chatting on snap until she eventually stopped. I started texting her instead and she entertained the conversation as much as I did with reasonably timed responses and playfulness.

Spend more time around her and see if she gives you the green light to move forward. She probably will be able to figure out that one spends time with those that they "like"...
