Hey Seddit, I've been friendly with a certain someone for most of college and in the last few parties we have been at, the behind the back touching has been stronger than usual (i.e. she stands by me in a very intimate way in public). However, my attempts at isolating or asking if she wants a walk home haven't worked out.

Any advice on other ways to test the waters and/or escalate beyond the hip-to-hip pose?
