Afraid of women not sure how to explore

I’m very closeted and not many people around me know about my sexuality. I’ve always wanted to explore things with a women but never know how to approach them, I feel like since women are naturally more friendly to each other I often cant read the lines between is she just friendly or is she flirting? Whereas though with a man I feel like that line is more clear to me so I can pick up on “flirty behavior” more often.

So I guess im scared of thinking someone is flirting or interested while they were just being straight and friendly. So how do you if someone is interested in women? and how can you tell if they’re flirting or just being friendly or any other advice
