She seems very shy, talks to almost nobody in class (unless they talk to her first) and I always catch her sneaking glances at me. I first noticed her in class during a "get-to-know-your-classmates" activity. She was staring at me. When I looked at her, she looked away but looked up long enough to smile. We worked together once on a class assignment (she asked me if we could work together), where she surprised me with her interest in getting to know me. Of course, I took that as an opportunity to get to know her. She told me she's a rather shy person but judging from the way she spoke to me, it didn't seem that way at all! Sure, the whole time we spoke, she did fumble with her words a lot and talked really fast. She appeared really fidgety too but she laughed a lot. She seemed really outgoing, rather than shy. She'd laugh at my jokes, even though they are so lame... What made me like her even more was the fact that we had so much in common. It was unbelievable how much we kinda connected.. But it took her another month to talk to me again. I know I should have talked to her since I'm crazy over her but I just can't bring myself to do that. I'm sooo shy when it comes to girls! So I kinda just waited for her to talk to me. Which she did. She just randomly came up to me after class and talked to me. We walked out together, talked more, and I even went out of my way to walk with her. I was surprised at how calm I was when talking to her. I was expecting lots of jumbled words, cut off, awkward sentences from me but there was none. In fact, all of that......... came from her.Do you think it's possible that she's nervous around me? I mean, do you think she likes me too? Could she be as into me as I am into her? See, I surprised myself by asking for her number and when I texted her and asked her to save my number, she replied with a one word answer. And that put me down a little. Maybe she didn't know what else to reply to me telling her to "save my number"? I honestly don't know and I'm kinda sad right now.. What should I do? Should I text her? Should I wait for her to text me?

 I think this girl does like you as she goes out of her way just to talk to you in class, if she is shy she would have never have done that unless she really liked you.
The fact that she is shy may be the reason why she seems nervous around you and that you should try to talk to her more to bring her out of her shell and feel more comfortable around you.
You probably are right about the text as it was just a one answer question and she didn't know what to say to you, so don't take it to heart.
You should text her, just make small talk for now and invite her out so she can get to know you better, that will make her feel less shy around you and she will start to tell you more about herself.
Hope I helped
