I've had a few really bad experiences with dating co-workers. For one thing, it's sometimes very hard to leave fights out of the work place. So it can end up looking very unprofessional very quickly. And don't kid yourself that you can keep a relationship secret from your co-workers. They will sense the change, trust me. So you end up looking even more foolish, like you have something to hide. I would say don't do it. Unless you are prepared to lose your job. It's a long story, but that's what happened to me the last time I dated a woman I worked with. I really liked the job, too. Had been there almost eight years. And we worked in different departments, both non-managers. Also, the girl you like sounds like she has some relationship drama already going on. Do you really want that baggage? At least try to find out what's really going on with her. In the end, only you can make the decision, but I just hope you don't have to learn the hard way. I've regretted every workplace relationship I've had. Best of luck!
