Other than saying she's cute and you're a softie for hurting people, you haven't really told us how you emotionally feel about her. If things weren't so busy and you had more time, would you date her?
Replying to the bottom portion of your post:
I think of her as a friend. Really, she's cute, nice, etc., but I just think of her as a friend. I know pretty well I have tendencies to joke around rather often, and people may find that misleading and take it the wrong way. Perhaps she finds the fact that I'm always so nice = me liking her? Regardless, I will try to dig it out of her nicely by asking if she does like me. Not forcing or anything though, of course. I'll find out eventually, but I'll wait til the time is right, otherwise, I might make her feel uncomfortable by asking her.
Even if I wasn't busy, the feelings wouldn't change, I think. Problem with me is that for the close friends now that I have, I don't mind that they're all close with me. But for newer people that I'm not too familiar with, I'd rather them not be too into my life. Especially since I'm fully aware I'm a pretty busy 21 year old. I work and go to school pretty much daily, except for weekends. Summer on the other hand, I'll be busy exercising and probably working:
a) 2 part-time jobs OR
b) a full-time job (45 hrs/week, -5 hours for lunches. 40 hrs total) with a small part-time job (hopefully around 8-10 hours only, no more for this part-time job)
That'd be nice, and that's what I plan on doing during the Summer. No life. :/
