Naw - we've seen that behavior before. Because someone is different and able to do things others can't, people often mistake that for romantic love. It's more amazed at someone than it is a crush. Now if they show her writing about him in a diary or if Astrid and Hiccup have problems (and what couples don't) then Ruffnut would be a good foil, competition for Astrid. Of course Hiccup would come around to Astrid, she's the love of his life, but if she's really unhappy with him and they can't come to terms with it, I can see Ruffnut LOOKING like a better choice.

She's a neat character, fun as a twin, but without more time on screen, she's only interesting as a twin, not a character that stands alone. Now if something happens to Tuffnut (banished, coma, etc.) then you can really turn her into something, forgive the phrase, 3 dimensional. Without something like that happening, she's only support, not a main character. And depending on how the characters grow, it may be a waste to spend time on her. Then again, the characters do what they will and you've gotta let them be them.
