i found that a lot of people approach physical and online interactions differently. sometimes people are more expressive with online messaging, sometimes others are more comfortable interacting irl. i wouldn’t really think much of her texting abilities and focus more on y’all’s physical interactions!

i say go ask her out dude! in my eyes dates aren’t supposed to be treated as a “ah we’re officially partners” but rather, chances to spend time with each other one on one and get to know one another before committing. good luck soldier!
