If A Girl Calls You Buddy?
I work with a girl whom I really like, and she has called me "buddy" a couple of times—once in a text and another time in person. She often flirts with me, smiles when she sees me, laughs at my jokes, and teases me. However, I’m wondering if her calling me "buddy" means she only sees me as a friend, or if it doesn’t necessarily matter. I should also mention that she has agreed to go to a baseball game with me in the next week or two, although I don’t consider it a "date." What do you think?

she's not interested in you....girls flirt with guys all the time...
You've got to take it in context of her regular vocabulary, really. I seem to call all sorts of people buddy, including the guy I was last into. I try not to, for fear of making him think of us as just friends. Still, I use it so often that sometimes its just a habit and it slips in. I also call my mom "dude" on occasion, although she is anything but! Don't read too much into this alone -- but if she is avoiding affection and physical touch, hard to get a hold of, and not wanting to make plans very often ... Chances are you're just a friend. If she is open to physical affection, likes to hang out often and initiates contact frequently, sounds like there's more there.
That's really weird, usually girls would call guys
'a buddy' if their not into them. But since you're
saying that she's flirting and everything makes
me think different. This is a tough one. Maybe
during the baseball game you should call her
buddy and see how she responds. If you guys
are serious, and you're sure she likes you back
100% you should ask her why she calls you
'buddy' but if not it would be pretty awkward just
to bring it up like that.
I'm in the same situation, this girl im liking keeps calling me buddy. However her first language isn't english ( although she speaks english fluently) . We dont even know each other well but when she keeps saying it. I noticed she calls everybody buddy though, so i never thought much of it.
Just start making moves / sweet talking the girl like crazy
I call guys buddy and it means nothing in relation to how I see them. I would totally still consider dating a guy I may have randomly called buddy a few times. As far as I can see, it makes no difference.
Girls call me buddy, It's kind of a new fad I guess. just because you're her buddy doesn't mean you can't become more than friends. All good relationships start with friendship. Good luck and she definitely likes you but doesn't want to put herself out there just yet ;).

hmm I've been in a similar boat too. A girl called me buddy very often and then I realized I'm in the 'friend zone'. If you like this girl , then you gotta do something drastic.

Yep, she wants you bad. Seriously, watch Gilligan's Island. The skipper always called Gilligan, "Good Buddy", and they had a long relationship.
I would say casually to her" hey my name is so and so and feel free to use my name instead of always calling me Buddy!". She should get the point, without you coming across rude.
My guess is she just thinks of you as a "buddy".
Why don't you see how it goes at the baseball game and stop worrying so much.
