How weird it is to ask out someone or date despite being happy with being single like a part of life exploration?

Hi to everyone. Basically I don’t feel that lonely without a partner , but at the same time wouldn’t mind to explore romance and see where it goes. I think that even rejection is better than not trying out at all. like in worst case we would be respectful towards each other if we don’t click … will be thriving with our own lives. If yes? well, I guess it will be just a new cool chapter in my life , don’t know what to expect tbh.

P.S also wanted to find out whether she was acting friendly or flirtatious. I’m 18 years old
