She needs time to think

There is a girl I've known for about 9 years. We used to go out to restaurants and movies together all the time, and practically knew everything about each other. Anyway, I had to move away a few years ago, so we lost contact till she found me on Facebook. Now, she's moved closer and we've started talking more. I recently told her that I always was attracted to her and still would be open to more than friendship. She told me she will tell me about her feelings when she is ready, and said "You're such a wonderful man and I'm impressed you got the guts to tell me". I told her to take all the time she needs. We're talking like normal now, but I'm still not sure how to interpret her response to my admission...
