When a girl mentions her 'friend'

Hi,

Had a bit of a fling with a girl a while back, she ended up 'friend zoning' me - we still stay in contact from time to time, messages and text. Quite often it gets flirty, she'll always respond to any messages I send her, more often than not fairly quickly and she's happy to keep a conversation going for long periods of time, I know I have her full attention. The conversations are never as a 'friends conversation' it's more teasing and games, with some sexual innuendo at times.

We actually skyped recently for about an hour but then she said: 'oh I've got to go now really sorry, I'm going to the cinema, with...er...um (a bit shifty) my friend' before then hurriedly trying to change the subject.

The other night she was up late as was I so we were chatting on messenger, I mentioned the fact she was up late... she wrote out a message 3 times but then deleted it before sending it, saying 'Finished work at 9 and crashing at a friends, we stayed up watching a film' but then quickly said 'I gotta go to bed, good night' straight after and out of no where.

It's interesting she keeps bringing this friend up in a weird way, but then quickly changes the subject.

My thoughts:

1. It is a friend and I'm over thinking.
2. It is a friend (or no one) but she wants me to think it might be a guy to get a reaction from me.
3. It is a guy, but doesn't want to tell me because she likes the attention from me.
4. It is a guy but keeping me as an option, or still likes me.

Anyone else had anything similar to this?

#3 most likely.

Why do you text her so much and not try to set up a date. If you ask her out you force her to answer. Since you aren't asking her out you both continue this game of you giving your attention and she accepting it. Put the ball in her court.

I think she's keeping you around as an orbiter, or a backup if you would.

The only way to know for sure is to try to set up a date. Then based on her response you can tell where you really are with her.

It's not important what this friend is to her. What's important is...what are you going to do to move this interaction forward? If you've already had sex with her, just ask her to come hang out with you at your place. If her answer is no, move on. If it's a yes, then the friend is irrelevant.
