Search Results: finding a boyfriend

At my work, Walmart, there's this girl I have noticed that is interested in me. Her mom shops there occasionally and told me the a couple weeks ago that her daughter liked me. Me thinking that her mom is just trying to help her daughter find a boyfriend didn't read into it too much but this is how i noticed her behavior towards me as i am like a rock and dense when it come to people flirting with me (unless it's super blatant).

I transfered to this store to be a department manager and she is an associate. Far as i know it not against policy to date employees so long as you are not their supervisor and I work in the fresh food area and she is a gm associate. She is a well known associate and I am a keep to himself and work type. I'm unsure if I should act on her feelings as there's a few barriers I have and seek input.

The biggest barrier: it does go against my personal beliefs to date co-workers. Even though we work on different sides of the store if things where to work out bad I don't want it to cause trouble among my other co-workers as I mentioned above she is well known and talks to the other associates more than I do.

I have talked with her on fb messenger a little bit and from the conversations we've had I do feel we would get along but tbh I have never really been in a relationship and am naturally socially awkward when talking to people.

Ultimately I feel that because of my lack of experience and possible troubled relations with coworkers that i should not pursue this and tell her this. At the same time I'm in my 30's and am aware that my "dating pool" is getting smaller and smaller the older i get. I'm tired of being single and not having very good luck with finding someone. Am i looking too much into this or are my thoughts in the right direction?
