Shy girl help..

Perhaps she is gay? Who knows? The only thing you have to go on here is the fact that she looked at you a few times and asked for your help in class. Everyone looks around and may or may not look away when making eye contact with someone. It isn't always a solid indicator that someone finds you attractive or vice versa - it is just natural behavior. The fact that she asked for your help in class is more of an indicator. However, it could just be an indicator of your talent. She finds your quality of work higher than hers and figures you would/could provide some needed help with her work. Or, it could have been an opening made specifically for you, which you blew (hope that thing you were late for was important!). Either way, doesn't sound like there is much hope here. When you asked her out, and her reply was "I am not looking into relationships now", you might have been better served to say something like "I don't want to move in with you, I just want to take you to lunch." or something similar. She probably would have accepted an innocuous invitation like that, to which you would have been able to figure out her true reason(s) she was not into a relationship mode. Since that never happened, the best you can do is the next time you see her, walk up to her and flat out ask her out to lunch or coffee or something. The worst case would be a flat out rejection. Not that hard to take since you already have gotten one and are still interested. Good luck.
