I have this ******** phrase, could someone help me translate?
"I did not initially like you, but I do now!"
"I did not initially like you, but I do now!"
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

depends on the context!
you could have done countless numbers of things, unless you tell us what you did and how you saw her react just before she said that, and if nothing how you reacted AROUND her in the days before.... we won't ever really know
But it is most likely one of two factors
she likes you as a little toy, that she can play with
you treated her like a toy, now its time to play games with her

The big question is why she has to stress the fact that she initially doubted me? why does she feel the urge to inform me about that?

Whatever perceptions she had of you off the bat, were dissolved and replaced with things she realized about you once she got to "know you". Apparently she likes those things. It's not '********'..it happens in all of us.
