<human>: Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?

This friend of mine was a classmate of mine for Senior year only as she came up for only that year. I sat aside from her in only one of classes and we rarely talked. During this year I had a crush on her. But it never led to anything. She wasn't looking for a relationship.

After about a year out of High school though I message her out of a dark place and she was there to help me. Set me straight and pretty much say what the heck is wrong with you, think positively. Then we Began talking pretty frequently sharing a few laughs here and there and then talking about serious things in our lives here and there as well.

One Night She asks me if I wanted to hang out with her when she gets beck home from upstate(being that she is in college). I said sure, We can go for a walk on this mountain I know and see the town from up there. She agreed to this and now its been a waiting game for that time to come

I told my friends and co-workers about this and keep telling me that its a date when I think its only a walk with a friend. I had no intention of doing anything with this girl when I started talking with her but then she came to me asking if I wanted to hang out, thinking its a friendly gesture, I said yes. So now everyone has me thinking if its really a date or not. Any thoughts?
