Ok here goes, at work there is/was a girl which is my type. But I always felt bad about trying to hook up with a girl you work with. So for a while I just forgot about it. Though some time later I started to mess around just out of curiosity.

I placed some flowers on her car, which got her curious to who was doing it. After some time she found out about it, but did not mind at all. She even saved the flower on her dashboard for all to see.

Nothing wrong with that, but once I did not do it she would ask why I did not get her another flower. So well I guess there was something behind it. I observed the situation a bit more, and then I took my chance. But to my surprise when I asked her out for a drink (nothing more to it) she gave me an answer saying I don't know maybe it's better not to.

Am I just stupid and got confused or did she just give mixed signals?

Well I have a problem like your to do with dating at work . I think she probably wanted to go for a drink with you but was scared of the work thing because when you go out with some one from work if you brake up. It becomes very weird after and can lead to problems try chatting with her see why she didn't want to go for a drink.

Well, she said "I don't know"... and not "No thanks." I'm sure she feels uncomfortable aout it because you guys work together. It's the same thing for me and the guy I like. Try asking her again and if she says "I don't know" again, ask her why not? It couldn't hurt, right? Oh, and the flowers thing is really cute by the way. I wish a guy would do something sweet like that for me sometime...

Hey, how long did it take you to land your current job. There are always other jobs to be had. If you've been around this girl enough to know it's not just a long shot, I'd say keep it up with the flowers. Sounds to me like right now she's just enjoying the chase. Don't disappoint.

Have you ever heard the expression "Don't crap where you eat."?

It is talking about work relationships (basically). It sounds like she may have interest in you, but does not want to get involved with someone at work.

While things are good with you two, work may just get a little akward, since people would know. Once things head south, wow, talk about an unholy mess!

I have had to work with a girl that I broke up with before, it wasn't pretty. She has probably been in the same situation and doesn't want to get into it again.

If you are really into her though, maybe try setting something up with friends and then invite her, that way it's not so much of a date.

Good luck with whatever you do.

She either really likes you or she's just there for your money, bud. Her asking where another flower was was probably playful humor that you could probably take as a hint that she's in to you.

She may honestly just be morally against dating a co-worker, she may be worried that if things go south, that'll make the work environment an awkward place to come to; and if that's the case she is thinking "I'd rather have what we have now and not jeopardize anything".

I've been in your situation (wasn't smooth enough to put the flowers on the car), but I did fall for a co-worker and I almost let her slip through my fingers - 13 months later and we're madly in love. I'm not sure what your intentions are (no offense - I just don't know), but if I were you, I'd take the chance of trying to convince her to at least just go out for a drink - as friends, at the least and see if anything transpires from the situation.

Just beware, if it goes south, fast, it could (and probably will) have an effect on your work environment.

- Good luck -
