I need to know what to do next in a potential relationship. (I am in uni btw)

It has taken me a while to realise how much she really does like me.

We met five months ago and have been meeting semi-regularly or regularly for nearly 4 months.

I wouldn't say in my view we have had a "proper date" most of the time just coffee.

She clearly enjoyed my company, and I did sort of ask her out for lunch and a walk, though she did not accept (nor did she refuse). Since then though we have been for a walk together, and walk and lunch.

She has been to my room in halls of residence once for me to play some music, and then we went for a coffee.

She actually then asked if I were free the next day and that is when we went for a walk and lunch.

Most recently, I had been planning sort of day out, but the weathe forecast was poor and I cancelled before she had given me a decision. Nonetheless we met, and she actually went to the trouble of finding somewhere quiet for us to meet. After that she actually invited me to her place for lunch and cooked for me.

It is now exam time so we might not see each other much and I will be going home soon thereafter. I want to do something with her before going home that is more of a proper date, and was contemplating asking her for dinner.

Is that appropriate at this stage?

My gut tells me she likes me, she makes remarks that hint at it, and some of the things she has done suggest she does. Yet there are one or two things that almost suggest otherwise.

What should be the next step?

And what could I suggest besides dinner? Is that a bit too much for a first "proper date"?

dobro agony auntOK what sort of thing? :)

There just isn't a lot I can think of really. There is not a lot to do here in this town that I can think of at least in the time frame (I finish exams 3rd June go home 4th or 5th so that means we would go out 3rd or fourth). But maybe some suggestions would help.

We are both students if that helps, but neither of us like partying and she is near as makes no difference tee-total and I don't really like doing anything involving alcohol.
