I'd tread cautiously. It's perfectly possible that she does like you but just wants to take things slow because she's just out of a relationship. It's also possible that you're her rebound and getting too emotionally invested will cost you in the long run.

How long have you known her? I've known plenty of girls who hate the idea of being single so much that they'll jump straight from one relationship into another, just because they know a guy likes them. In which case, you could just be her "holding" relationship until she finds someone else. This is probably a worst case scenario, but if you've known her for a while you should know if she's this way inclined.

It sounds horrible but even nice girls can do terrible things. I remember my first girlfriend effectively used me as a proverbial stepping stone to get to one of my best friends. I remember laughing when he dumped her a month into the relationship. Ten years later and they're now in a full on (second attempt) long-term relationship and we're all friends still... it's weird how things work out.

Anyway, I hope I'm wrong, but proceed slowly, go out and enjoy yourselves and the relationship but just be wary. If she's truly interested then she should start to show more signs of opening up and being happier with displaying affection.
