She has a boyfriend but wants to go out to eat with me
we are childhood friends.
does she like me ? should i buy her flowers?
maybe? maybe its giving you the last chance to commit to something more than friendship because soon its not going to be a option.
since imo women are impossible to read i suggest to bluntly ask her. that is if you want something more than "friendship"
if you dont want something more then avoid the topic entirely till "date is over.
you could be there for a 'last fling.
you could be there for her ego to turn you down.

have fun playing the mystery guessing game.
funny thing about women. practically no guy gets raised with understanding. dads cant tell you the truth cause the wife would freak out. also something weird happens to a guy thats been married for a certain time. their mind has a weird kind of conditioning like parts of their mental process shuts down.
