How does she see it ? More than friends date or just friends hanging out ?

Known this girl for over a year now, few months ago asked her out and she said yes, we went out had a good time, things went abit funny after that and then she had some family tragedy and we didn't talk for a couple weeks. We started talking again, things got back to before, so i started asking her out asked about 2 times over the course of about 1 month, she said yes to each but day came and she said her gran was in hospital, said this both times. Decided the month after to ask her one last time. Again she said yes, details where made and we met up, we where going to go to the cinema but there was nothing we wanted to see so she suggest going to the park, we sat on the benches and talked, we spent around 3 and half hours together mostly in the park talking.

I walked her to her bus and we hugged, she kinds came in to put her head straight over my should so i kissed her cheek, and the hug felt good, as in there was a squeeze and not an instant hug done go thing.

In the time we've known each other we've never hung out in groups,don't have many mutual friends,never refer to each other or introduce each other as friends. If i stop putting xxx or xx on texts she assumes something is up with me but if i increase the x's she won't return it. If i feel crap she always asks if i want to talk. On the dates she laughs at lots of things i say, we have good eye contact, talk about lots of different things,films,our life styles, things we hate, our families, random stupid stuff. Rarely ever a silence, even if i run out of things to say she picks it up again. Only problem is she has a couple of close male friends, she pointed out that they where friends, also she mentioned her ex, by name, just once, nothing significant in the convo. Do you think she see's me as more than a friend and these are dates or just as a friend hanging out

Edit: Something i missed out was that the girl will know i like her, her friend ask me for my number for her but later she didn't want it but she started texting me out of the blue and it went on from there, after about 3 months after i told her i liked her, she said she was flattered but wasn't looking for anything at the time. I accepted this and was ready to move on but she kept texting me. If we stopped texting such as she didn't get my message she would always text me after a few days asking what was up or joking we hadn't spoke for years. She never just let me go and so this is how everything has built up, getting closer ect.

When a girl says she is not ready or looking for a relationship, that means "Im not interested". You are friend zoned. Maybe if you were more confident in yourself and had just kissed her that time at the bus stop things may have been different. Tip, Never tell a girl your feelings when you are not in a solid relationship with them. It scares them off.
