I've spoken about my situation before, so I'll keep it short. I've asked a girl out for coffee before work one day, and it didn't happen. She didn't call me back, and things were awkward at work the next day. I've cleared this up though.
Don't worry, this isn't the problem. And I don't want to hear "she isn't interested, give up", because you don't know the situation fully (nor do I expect you to).
I basically believe there's a chance for things between us, and I believe she doesn't see that because she's not looking/ready/interested in a relationship right now. If you disagree, that's none of my concern, so don't mention it.

She's never had a boyfriend (although she's gorgeous), and we've talked often about how idiotic guys her age/at her school are (she's simply friends with them). I'm willing to wait until she's ready for a relationship. There won't ever be a chance for that if I push things right now, so I've got to keep my distance.

We've worked together probably 3-4 times so far within the past month and a half, and we'll probably work with each other once every two weeks from now on.

My question is how should I act around her now? I don't want to settle for the friend zone. I'm different than most of the guys she knows (who have put her off of dating) and I believe we'd be great together, but I respect that she doesn't want to lead me on since she's not ready or looking for a relationship.
Girls, what would be ideal for a guy in my situation to do? How would you like me to keep in touch with you outside of work, if at all? What would be the smartest way to behave when we work together?
Pretend I'm "the one who got away", how do I make you realize that? Through waiting and simply playing hard to get? Do I ignore her? Do I keep things short and sweet with her? Do I continue to hug her? Do I touch her every now and then to create a small spark/moment?
How would a guy in my position pursue a girl like this


Work details: We don't work in the same department, but we see each other often enough.
Communication details: She doesn't really use her facebook/myspace, I cannot call her (wouldn't be a good idea anyways), and we don't go to school together (I'm in university, she's in highschool).
