I think that you should just give her some attention but not a lot. Let her know that you are digging her, but at the same time, make her understand that she is expandable. Girls love guys that don't try to hard, or try to get shady with things. I don't think having her friends with her is a good idea, but thats me. I understand you don't want to put yourself on the line but if she finds out about the whole friend thing, it will lower the way she looks at you.
There are many ways you can handle this, but either way you choose, good luck p1mp.
