So, some know, some may not, so I'll give a little backstory.
For the past month or two, I've been getting to know someone at work, and she's great. We get along really well, joke a lot, laugh, and can tease each other. I've started to like her/have feelings, but am having trouble reading her to figure out if she feels the same, or if she only sees me as a friend. She has had plenty of guys hit on her, or had someone try to set them up with her, and she hasn't been too fond of it.
So...my worry is, my only advantage may be that I've been just talking with her as friends and not asking her out. Do I risk that and try to make a move?
I think I've decided that I need to somehow ask her to hang out outside of work, but I can't figure out how to go about it. Half of me says keep it as friends, and what happens later on will happen. The other half says to lay it out to her that I do like her, and enjoy spending time with her and would like to try it outside of work. Just so she knows and to just see how she responds. Obviously I want her to know how I feel about her, but knowing she hasn't been a fan of all these guys hitting on her has me worried she'll think that's the only reason I've been hanging with her at work...which actually I've grown to like her BECAUSE of the time we spent together and getting to know her...
