I am a senior in high school and I have had a crush on this girl since August and I have been flirting with her since October. In the fall we went to a few of my school’s soccer games and then didn’t really flirt much until December. During christmas break I went to the movies with her and we both seemed to have fun. A few weeks ago we went ice skating together and held hands. I text her everyday and we often use emoticons in our texts. I know she likes me and I like her, I just haven’t officially asked her out yet.
Are we dating even though I haven’t asked her to be my girlfriend yet? should I ask her to be my girlfriend or should I just go along and assume she is?
