what sort of hints?
i mean, do you know her well enough to be certain they're really
hints, or just friendly gestures?
don't mean to burst your bubble bro; i sincerely hope you'll
succeed,
but it happened to me too, i thought they were big hints and when
she told me about this other guy, i took me chances.
guess what?
"friends?" 
i read she's your business partner too, so things might be awkward
if it wasn't what you made it out to be.
