Confused :/

After searching the internet for help on this matter i've still not been able to find information that could directly help me out so i've registered here hoping somebody with experience could perhaps help me.

I met this girl about 2 months ago on a night out, we kissed, exchanged emails,i got a lengthy email from her explaining her situation, how she'd recently just come out of a relationship with a guy she'd had a kid with and how she doesn't usually kiss guys on a night out and that she really likes me.

I liked this girl quite alot, attractive, great personality, and the kid thing does'nt bother me at all. So i pursued it, we were texting lots and id wake up with texts from her which was always nice. This continued for a couple of weeks, and we met up during these weeks several times, the first time we met up we didn't have sex, but we were quite intimate, then after this we arranged to see each other several more times, and these times we did have sexual interactions. This continued happening up until the last week in september when she started becoming more distant.

I was a little confused as to why she was being distant and ended up receiving a text explaining why, basically stating she really likes me, she doesn't think we should meet up as much, because shes just got out of a relationship and doesn't want to rush into one, she said she could easily fall for me because of how gorgeous i am and nice etc, but would'nt feel right feeling that way about someone so soon after getting out of a relationship.

I could understand this, and so my reply was short and simple, along the lines of, im happy to take it slow with you, but if youd rather just be friends then we best not meet up as much and if i see you out in bars etc it'l just be to say hello. I received no text back to this. Later that night whilst i was out i received a text from her, sayin it would be nice to say hey.. as she was out too. We eventually saw each other in a club and had a general talk and then i left, later that night i got a number of texts from her one of which was "i don't want a relationship i want you, "..this gave me the instant impression that she just wanted a bit of fun for the time being, but after this a few texts later i had texts like " i do really like you, its just really hard, u know i do, otherwise i wudnt be doing this" so i was abit thrown as to what she wanted, abit of fun, or a relationship. We were both under the influence of alcohol, so this may have influenced texts? Anyway she said she would text me the next day to talk about it, but i never received a text.

With my head being all over the place i thought i should text and try and clear things up, so i text her a couple of days later "i do really like you too, we can just have fun for the time being like we have been doing and just enjoy it, if we do want to get abit more serious in the future then we can talk about it then" she replied and agreed with my comments. Since then we have been txting on n off but it seems to be pretty much always me that initiates the texting now...and then on some occasions i wont receive a text back when i clearly ask questions that warrant a response. I have seen her out since and were just like normal both end up 'pullin' each other, and have a good night, i met up with her recently and she came round to my house, we chilled out with a movie, was great spending time together, enjoying each others company and we did end up having sex, after which i got a text along the lines of...i had a really good night tonite, i always do when im with u hope to c u soon...after the text she'd sent me before about wanting to take it slower i assumed we wer just friends with benefits, but some of the texts she sends makes me think she wants more.

After not hearing from her much over the weekend, except for friday and one or two texts on sunday, when i saw her, i text her on tuesday trying to arrange a day for us to meet each other again, id suggested a couple of dates and she said one of them is good for her, so i sent a text back saying we should see each other then, but got no reply back, now it appears shes going out on this night that was appropriate for both of us.

I'm not too sure whats happening, we had agreed on taking it slow/abit of fun, but she seems to be playing head games, ie sometimes not replying to texts, me being the one to text first etc..which to me is taking alot of the fun out of it, i have grown to like this girl quite alot, and would be happy if this worked out into a relationship, im not sure if im the kind of guy that can do the "fu** buddy" thing, at the start i thought great..but now my feelings have come into play...naturally i don't want things to come to an end between us.
