Flirtatious or am I barking up the wrong tree?

I'm part of an expanded social circle where there is a virgo girl who has been chased by this guy for the last year or so. Another guy secretly likes her but won't make a move honoring this other guys interest in the girl. To date, neither guy to my knowledge has made any head way. Now I am not that close with this guy friend but I respect him enough that I am in a conundrum.

Long hours and university hauled in a study room to the late hours has resulted in increased flirting between me and the said female. Now I can come up to her and she will put her arms around me. If I have not said hi to her, she'll come by massage my back as I tickle her or we'd be play fighting etc. One late night we just laid down and she buried her face into my chest. We don't message each other but on social media, she is an avid follower of me; liking everything I post.

Now the problem is I've experienced the jealousy of this male friend I've noticed now. I don't openly initiate when he is around but she does and I can see the awkwardness he feels and the post situational coldness and ignoring of me. Deep down to be honest, I don't really care. I've got naturally a thick skin and I flirt with anyone and anything haha. I don't discriminate (one of the reasons I get along with everyone). Yet I feel sorry for him as I've been 'him' in the past so many times when other male friends have whisked away my love interests that now the odds are flipped I feel bad.

So I have a few questions actually. Does this virgo girl actually like me? She's the innocent type that does not flirt with others as she has with me although I'll admit to date, I don't think any guy has been 'man' enough to openly flirt with her in light of this guy that likes her. Furthermore she is the really innocent type; I don't think she has done anything sexually and possibly not even been in a relationship.

Secondly for once in a while I actually feel quite attracted to this chick and want to pursue something. Can this pan out without drama? Or will regardless, drama be had?

And the Virgo innocence claims another unsuspecting soul. She doesn't seem that innocent to me or there would be no touching involved.

If we touch you, we like you. If we find ways to hover around you and smile and talk to you, we like you.

I don't see any drama because there is no active competition going on since no one is actively pursuing.

All of you are single.

You're pretty fucking na??ve and gullible.

Obviously, she is initiating with these other men, and playing for her attention. If the bitch isn't rich or look like Raquel Welsh, then there isn't a logical reason for her to be such a commodity to men. so, that means she is playing, in this case, she plays innocent.

The proof is the pudding, should you care to look past your own ego that tells you that you are special.

And here's the pudding ^^^^

She plays the game well because here you are clueless and playing right into her hands, as well as this other guy. She's makes fucking sure that you notice that she initiates with this other guy, visa versa.

She's playing you like a fiddle and you seem oblivious.

oh and btw .... you can't actually say that she isn't flirting with others because you only know what she is letting you know.

Thanks for the insights guys. P-Angel I wish it was that easy. I can handle myself in the social scene (having gone through my 'nice guy' phase and the endless rejections much earlier) hence I am known around as being good with woman. The problem is our degree is very study intensive; almost like a full time job so we're together 24/7 essentially and you end up partying together too. I've watched from a far (having not been interested before)and no, I'm the only guy she 'physically' flirts with. Every other she keeps at an arms length; the said guy particularly as I've been him before as I know how a girl acts when uninterested (I was that guy once). I don't play into her game; heck, I've got enough of other woman interests around should I walk away from this. Not to mention better things to do. I think this may be what draws her to me.

The conundrum still lies in her male friend. To summarise him was when he waited at the library for her one evening to walk down to grab dinner when she was already sitting down with us munching on appetizers. I'm not the jealous type but I do feel sorry for him as I was that guy once; even up to my last love interest. Hence why this time I don't plan to play second but I don't want to hurt the guy either.
