<human>: Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?

Known each other for seven months or so, been going out, hanging out for the past two.  For the past couple weeks, we've been texting every day.  I initiate most of the time, but there's times where she does as well.  Emoji use is heavy, good night texts often too.
We've been going out the past couple weeks, I believe four times thus far and we have plans again for this week.  We're even planning an out of state trip together over Spring Break.  I'd like to consider maybe three of the four dates (definitely meet the criteria), though as far as I'm aware they could just be seen as two friends hanging out.  We never talked about the prospect of dating, but I'm fairly certain she likes me too.  The way we can effortlessly hold conversation, the way she laughs at my sarcasm and jokes, the way she looks and smiles at me.  You know those "I want someone to look at me the way X looks at Y" memes?  That's kinda how she looks at me, even when we get caught staring at each other.  There's times where we're able to finish each others' sentences too.  There's more to say, but I think you get the picture. 

Is there a point where we're dating, bf/gf without directly acknowledging it?  Right now it appears that way in every way but officially.  I don't want to seem like that creepy guy that sees something out of nothing, because there's definitely something there.

I understand the one surefire way to know is to ask, but I know that runs the risk of making the friendship we have more...awkward?  Or at least a shadow of its former self.  Regardless, I want to be friends and something more, but friends at the very least regardless of how she may feel.

Advice please
<bot>: Been seeing a girl for a while, pretty sure we like each other.  Is there a point where we're dating, seeing each other, what have you, without directly acknowledging it?  Or is it something to directly ask?
