'Growing' isn't quite natural here. We would use 'grow' to describe the other item.

Wrong: I'm growing to like broccoli. I'm growing to appreciate rap music.

Right: Broccoli is beginning to grow on me. Rap music is growing on me.

Hi,

What about "I'm taking to her"? Would it be a good substitute for "I am starting to like her"?

Thanks.
