So I've been messaging this woman on Okcupid for the past couple of days, and we have both shown significant interest in each other. Our messages are long with both of us asking multiple questions. It seems like she takes about a day to reply back, but I think that's cause she wants to actually have some quality thought in her response, which is very attractive. We've exchanged 6 message so far and was planning on transitioning to a date on the next message. Her recent message, one sentence that stood out to me said "I applied for a scholarship to attend a boarding school in Canada. I got the scholarship and left. I can tell you more about that some other time, however"

Is that her way of saying that she wants me to ask her out? I was planning to ask her out on the following message anyway, but that line in bold gives me some hope that she won't flake or something if I try to transition to a date.

I guess you missed the part where I said I was going to ask her out on the following message. I usually give it about a couple of days/responses, and if I'm not very busy, I'll ask her out as well.

So you want to ask her out, but she is moving to Canada for a boarding school and has already left?

Either I have misunderstood, or she isn't too available for a date if she is not in the country.

Otherwise, why are you taking so long to ask her out? Make your move.

Checkered. No..she's in New York currently doing a fellowship. She used to live in another state and wanted to leave, so she applied for boarding school in Canada and got the scholarship and left.
