Look: This liaison occurred between two consenting adults. There must have been some sort of attraction, so there's no need for the self-deprecation and over-analysis. Let it happen, see where it leads. If she begins to show more emotional involvement than you're feeling, that would be the point at which you'd let her know how you feel and go from there.

I'm an intensely emotional person and have had a couple of FWB relationships that have worked extremely well for both parties. I was involved with one guy that, after a couple of months, confessed that he'd fallen "in love" with me. It was emotionally confusing as I couldn't see a long-term relationship with him, but knew I had to tell him that I didn't want to continue the sexual aspect as his friendship was so much more important. Luckily, he was that good of a friend that we were able to maintain the friendship without the sex.

At this point, you don't know much about her or your own feelings. Take your time and if it continues, don't analyze it. Talk it over with her.
