It's... different. I'd like to akin Pyrrha's unusual attention on Jaune as a guardian/knight watching over her lord. She's concerned for him, she cared for him deeply, but just like Jaune, I doubt she feels deserving of him.

Again, take her reaction towards Jaune's rejection during his Arc (oh my, that's actually an okay pun!). For any normal person, friend or not, their first reaction would have been indignancy, anger and stunned hurtfulness.

Pyrrha showed shock and hurt, but she neither angry nor indignant at Jaune. Instead of protesting her point she just became subdued and walked away, because that was what Jaune had wanted - not wanting her help. She even went as far as keeping away from Jaune whenever she could and not talk to him, and I believe that's because she believes that it would be interpreted wrongly by Jaune. The girl was terrified of getting on his wrong side, and that just doesn't feel like the romantic kind, and more of duty.
