Coworker: Flirting or Friendly?

Anonymous
There is a new girl at work that I like, but can't figure out if she is flirting with me or just being friendly.

We both work part time and go to the same college. We have a lot in common (like the outdoors, music, sarcasm/humor, intelligence, religion, sports, ect). We talk and email a lot at work (not work related). She also added me on Facebook about a week after we met, but hasn't added any of the other similar age college students that she commonly works and talks with. She has started conversations twice on Facebook on days when I am not at work saying I should come in to work/suck for being off/ect.

We had a large meeting/conference at work where I left her and some other coworkers to go sit with some of my other friends at work. She kept looking at me and smiling when we made eye contact that even my friends noticed and asked me if anything was going on between us.

She also seems to find any reason to come ask me for help, even on really simple stuff that she could figure out with a little effort. I definitely made an effort to help her get situated at work, so she knows me better than anyone else in the office,but it I find it odd she asks for help on some little things.

I wish I could figure out if she is just being friendly or if she is flirting. I haven't ever had much success in dating and I find myself in the friend-zone a lot. If she wasn't a coworker, I probably wouldn't worry over whether she was flirting or being friendly. However, since we work together, I don't want to be wrong and make things awkward.

Thoughts/advice on whether she is just being friendly or flirting?

I am going to wait and see what happens

-I went to lunch with her & coworker and they talked about guys & exes and she mentions that she is single & not talking to anyone

-we now Facebook and text a lot (she added me on FB & started texting after I gave my number for work reason)

-we constantly poke fun at each other - is this just friends?

-she wants me to go to a coworkers party so she knows someone but they also want to try and get me drunk, but I never drink that much & they know it
