Hi all,
I've got a dilemma with a girl and not knowing if she might like me or not...I know I'm probably overthinking things but I'm not that experienced in the dating game.
Story is this...I've worked at the same law firm as this girl for a few years and we became quite friendly, not speaking all that frequently but every now and again and always had a good laugh. She left a couple of months back to go work at a different law firm and I dropped her a cursory message afterwards wishing her well etc. We were chatting a bit of message and she suggested we go for a couple of drinks, which we do the following week. Drinks were good but nothing really happened for a couple of weeks then when I text her suggesting we meet up again. We did soon after and we went for drinks again also for a meal. We really hit it off well that evening and were making each other laugh and opening up, seemed like we were both very comfortable with each other. I messaged her a couple of times that week and then suggested that we go out the following week to a cafe, again she was up for this so we headed out again. We were in this cafe for a few hours and again had a good laugh and got on well where we continued to be quite open with each other, almost like I feel that we were both more open with each other than we would be with others. Since then we have messaged each other a few times with her initiating a couple of times and me a couple of times. I haven't suggested meeting up again since as I tried to leave the ball in her court with that one.
I'm a bit confused at where we stand with this? I really like her and people I speak to find it peculiar that we are doing all this as friends (we weren't all that close even when we worked at the same firm). Because nothing to the contrary had been said, i hadn't considered these dates but is it possible that she did? What else should i consider doing next?
Also, it's worth noting that I am low in confidence when it comes to women so that's why I need a push in the right direction. In my opinion, she is stunning and I feel I'm not and am a bit out of shape (you can see the lack of confidence...). Any advice you guys can offer would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Ian
