How to progress the relationship (if at all)?

[CEE08]

So I’ve been speaking to this girl from my work for the past month or so and we’ve been hanging out together a lot but haven’t been on any proper dates as such. She’s just broke up with her ex so I haven’t been wanting to rush her into anything, we’ve just been getting to know each other more. We’ve just recently started getting closer, we’ve kissed and she stayed the night at mine a couple of days ago.

 

However, her ex started calling her when she was at mine and it’s got me thinking. I really like her but I don’t know what to do now. Should I keep it cool and continue taking things slow or confess my feelings and ask her to be honest as to whether she sees the relationship going anywhere. I know this might jeopardise everything but I can’t tell if she genuinely likes me or she’s just using me as a rebound. Therefore if I’m wasting my time I’d rather know now and move on.

 

Thanks

haven’t been on any proper dates

That would certainly seem like a sensible next step.

 

Ask her on a date, if she says yes, take it from there.

 

Assume she is also "dating" others, which may or may not include her ex. If you reach the exclusive stage, that will naturally exclude her ex. But if she decides to work things out with him, then you were only non-exclusively dating anyway so nothing lost, really.

No woman is going to take a guy seriously that "dances around the bush" for a month while she has kissed him and spent the night at his place,...and he still hasn't done anything other than scratch his head and wonder "What's going on"?
