Does a girl asking you to see a movie imply romantic intentions?

If a girl suggests seeing a movie with you, is it more likely platonic or romantic? Is seeing a movie with a girl one on one, initiated by her, to be seen as a date? I suggested we do something, she suggested a movie.

We are friends, have known each other for less than two months. Have good chemistry, a lot in common, joke around a lot and text most days. We’ve hung/gone out once before one on one

Yeah see it’s pretty hard to tell 😂 some people, like Rainfall would only really do something like that with someone they had interest in, and then ingrownhair has a point that some people would really do that with just a friend too.
Just ask her? See what she’s sees it as/how she feels about it.

You could also just go into it not expecting much but then feel out the vibe, DON’T put your arm around her, since you don’t know. But try getting close by whispering things to her and try lightly touching arms if she’s has hers on the arm rest. See how she responds.

What sort of movie? If RomCom, very likely
i suppose it depends on the movie....

Brokeback Mountain = just friends

Baise Moi = better go in the back row

We have yet to pick the movie, she said she’d see what’s playing and pick what she wants to see. What if there’s no RomComs currently playing?

Man. Just out of observation, i've noticed that a lot of people on this site overthink the situation and therefore end up doing something stupid or unnecessary... if I were you, just go with the flow man and just see what happens.
Maybe try touching her as in get your arm to rest against hers we do notice that, and put your arm in a way that she could touch it, and paying for her will send her the message that you see it as a date. If she offers to go halves just say no I’ve got it, and being gentlemanly in general open doors for her walk behind her etc

Yeah I’ve noticed that too. It’s just that when you go with the flow, sometimes the other person doesn’t even know you’re into them and nothing comes out of it. If I’d just ‘gone with the flow’ with my ex, we’d have never gotten together.

The arm thing sounds like a good idea. If she puts her arm on the arm rest, then lightly touch arms, or have mine on the arm rest with lots of room in the case she’d touch me.

Paying for her; since we didn’t really set it up as a date would that not be crossing a line? I mean I guess yeah it would make my intentions clear but that could make the rest of the outing awkward if she declines/ makes it obvious she didn’t see it that way.

Yea, I get what you mean. I've also noticed that some 'desperate boys' go really quick and rush into relationships thus causing the other person to feel uncomfortable. Then again, I'm **** when it comes to advice... I just think the best thing thing to do is not to overthink the situation and allow things to happen naturally lmfao... and obviously have fun my mannnn, enjoy your young yearsss.
Depends if she wants to go with you.
