Dear GhanaWeb,

I find myself in a puzzling situation in my relationship. I have been with my girlfriend for two years, and when I recently broached the topic of taking our relationship to the next level, she surprised me by stating that we were never officially dating because I never asked her out formally.

Now, I'm left wondering about the best course of action. Should I ask her out officially to establish a clear understanding of our relationship, or should I consider ending the relationship if, in her eyes, we were never truly in one?

I would appreciate some guidance on how to navigate this situation and gain clarity on the status of our relationship.
