Overly doting professor?

One of my professors treats me WAY better than the other students. She often calls me cute and fixes her hair and turns red when I talk to her. She even asked me if I could have another student forward a picture of me that she thinks is "cute," so she can have it on her phone. If we have a class where she sits with us, she picks a seat next to me. She has offered and given me rides before.

She also makes odd jokes sometimes when we're alone together (there's a perfectly normal, private instruction component), referencing male-specific, sexual anatomy.

We text sometimes, and our electronic conversations have a very friendly vibe (lots of smileys and winky faces and stuff).

Obviously I like that I'm treated nicer than some of the other students, but sometimes I don't know if there's a boundary that shouldn't be crossed.

Especially because recently I needed some help, and I felt like her response to my request was extremely rude. In fact, you can say she gaslighted me and used word salad. In the aftermath, I thought that maybe I shouldn't have had such close relations, as they may have impacted our ability to interact respectfully and professionally.

Moreoever, since I’m technically the only one in her studio at my class level, I felt pressure to fib my end-of-semester evaluation, so that she has all perfect scores.

She's also sort of a narcissist who talks badly about colleagues, students, the administration, etc. and is quite rude to some students. She also tells me embarrassing secrets about her colleagues and other students. So I'm afraid I may be just a temporary favorite.

Any insight here?

Your prof is being incredibly inappropriate. It also sounds like addressing the situation will not end well given her previous behaviour. Nip it in the bud before it gets out of hand - it is only moving in one direction.
