I'm not ready for a RELATIONSHIP and neither is she, but we like each other. Where do we go from here?

There's this girl, see... I know she has an interest in me because of the way we interact. (kisses, holding hands, etc.) She's introducing me to her family at every opportunity, heck, I just spent the night drinking and hanging out with her dad. (she was amazed at my level of comfort!)

I'm not ready to rush into a relationship due to my hectic lifestyle, but I want to see her more. She's not ready because of things that she needs to do to improve HER, but she agrees that more time needs to be spent together.

There just happens to be that one speed bump: other people and drama. Coming from both sides. We spent the night at the local beach and had a deep (albeit slightly buzzed) conversation about the drama and came to the conclusion that we should put it (the drama) aside and just focus on our time together.

She wants to meet what I call my "ride-or-die" best friend. Is this a wise choice? How do I go about not being needy and/or clingy?
