Do girls flirt with guys they find unattractive? either out of pity or for an ego stroke?

Anonymous
At the office there is this girl who talks and flirts with me, which has resulted in the guys I work with trying to get us together. Since this has happened she has begun speaking to me more. She has called me her ‘favourite' and as I left the office she yelled out my and bye with a cheeky smile (would a girl draw attention to the fact that she likes someone in front of the whole office).

What I need help with is that i’m a shy guy and rarely get attention from girls because of it. She has a bf, so is she talking and flirting with me as an ego stroke because she knows that I like her, or out of pity, do girls joke, flirt and talk to guys they find unattractive?
