Ladies of Yahoo! Answers! - Does this girl like me?

[jazzprime23]

Hey Everyone!

There's a girl I really like (one of my good female friends' roommate) that goes to my university but I don't know if she likes me! I mean I REALLY REALLY like her. Like she sets the standards for Serious GF/Wife material. We've been friends for since my first semester here and we immediately became friends because we had so much in common. We hang out with eachother since we have the same group of friends as one big group but we always end up talking to eachother the most. The thing is we are both kind of shy. Our school just started this week after a long winter break and today was the first time I have seen her in a year. I was walking back to my next class and she happened to approach me and we caught up and what not. We usually subtly flirt with eachother (lightly touch eachother etc.) whenever we see eachother and she always enjoys hearing my jokes and anecdotes/stories and we had one class together and we would always sit with eachother and talk all the time and I am sure we are both aware of it but how do I know she really likes me?? Also a couple of months after I met her had intense chat sessions. I am not a fan of chat on facebook but these conersations were so long. We messaged eachother back and forth until she suddeny stopped and said "we should continue this conversation at our pace you should come visit" but I never did LOLOL because I thought she may have thought the conversation was getting awkward.

For what its worth as we were parting ways for our classes today when I met her after a long time I was looking at her while she was walking away and she turned back and we both quickly looked away. I don't know if its one of those sixth sense girl things or does she like me????? I AM TOO SHY TO ASK HER OUT OMG HELP GUYS I REALLY LIKE HER. I don't have trouble asking random girls I think are cute for numbers because I have nothing to lose but I don't even have her number because I am afraid of making things awkward as friends if it turns out she doesn't like me.
Or possible plot twist: Or is it that she's so friendly/kind she sometimes initiates the conversation
