I wouldn't get invested in someone who lives 2000 miles away simply because we got along one weekend and she said I had a nice personality.
This right here!
It was nice for her to give you her number. Even if she is crazy head over heals for you... she is across the country! There is not a lot of future or satisfaction in that.
This leads me to beleive she was being friendly too. That she liked you and would like to stay in touch. Hard to envision a lot of romantic expecations due to the distance however.
Women love attention and validation. So yes they give their numbers to guys they aren't interested in. Married women or Women in relationships still give out their numbers. Especially if their relationship is rocky. Nothing beats the Break in case of Emergency guy.

I know there are people who have made long distance work, but I imagine those relationships were based on much more than "the one I got along best with out of a group of people one weekend".
IMO you need an extraordinary connection to make long distance work. You also have to be the type that can be in a relationship with someone minus most of the things people in dating relationships have...physical presence, physical contact, time spent doing things together, introducing them to your friends, making new friends as a couple. Phone calls, Skype, email and text are all well and good but are they enough?
I think there is so much more to consider than she provided her phone number and if that "means something". To me, if there was a connection that weekend, you would know it as it happened and not wonder in hindsight if there was something there.

Would you give your number to a guy w/o him asking, unless you were interested?
Basically, I was camping over the weekend, set up by my cousins and their friends. At the end, every participant was given a brown paper bag with their name on it. Over the course of the weekend, other campers would write nice things on slips of paper and put them in people's brown bags.
It wasn't mandatory.
The woman who I got along with best over the weekend, wrote that I had a "Warm, friendly, and open" personality, and said, "thanks for being you!" She ended with her name and number.
Am I reading too much into this? Unfortunately, she's 30 (I'm 24), and she lives 2k miles away.
I can't even tell you the number of times I've gotten a woman's number and she had no interest. Rest assured, it's happened a lot.
Might as well take a swing at her. Why not? At the very least, you might have a cool place to visit.
One of the last times (of the very many times) this has happened, I got a number from a woman who lived in California. When I went there (for something else), I called her to meet up. Of course, she didn't but still, no harm.

Yes sometimes just so that I won't hurt anybody ego thats if they ask for it, but in your case I think she really likes you, and women who are her age are usually stra8 to the point although she probably only wants you for sex, I guess its a win win for you

As a woman... wow, no, just no. I absolutely don't give out my number or even one of my email addresses if I'm not interested. Attention and validation can be great, sure, but the wrong kind of attention sucks -- i.e., from someone you're not interested in, from someone who doesn't take no for an answer, etc. Giving out your contact info to someone who you're not interested in can be a one-way ticket to having to change your phone number a month later when they won't stop calling/texting/sexting you photographs of their anatomy.
