I am interested in asking this girl out for a date that I work with...and was hoping to get a little feedback and advice.

Thanks in advance...

Usually I don't have a problem asking girl out if I work with them...due to the fact that the ice is already broken from interacting with them on a daily basis.

What is different in this case is the interaction...there is barley any, because she works in a different department on the other side of the building. Just small talk when we are in the elevator, or if we pass by each other. Hi...How is your day...the general stuff.

I will eventually have to pop the question, however I would like to play my cards right.

I know from a good resource that she had just gotten out of a 4.5 year relationship, and has been single for 3 months. I could just ask her out on a date, however I'm not sure on her feelings on dating or how her emotions are at this point.

I really don't know why I'm so conservative on this one...I think due to the fact as I get older the opportunities seem arrive less, and just want to make the most out of it, and she is a great prospect. She's a really good natured...sweet...cute...just has this aura about her that intrigues me.

We are both 27yrs old and never been married...if that helps you any. I've worked for the company for about 6.5 yrs, and she has been for about 4.5 yrs. We've only worked in the same building for about 2-3 months.

My resource that I alluded to earlier was one of her teammates 2 years ago and had a cube next to her, so they talked all the time...but are not too close since she transferred to this building 2 years ago. Close enough to talk about her love life at least when she asked her the other day for me to see if she was still dating the same person (Both us transferred to the new building together at the same time and we are close...in a platonic way).

I think the interaction is good when it does happen. We are always smiling when we talk; her body language shows she is receptive to my words. She is outgoing with the people she knows, however she is shy with me a little...I'm not sure why...maybe we don't know each other well enough where she can lower her defenses.

I do want to be sensitive to her just getting out of something long term...because I know how I had felt in the past my last relationship. Hence, I do not want to let the ship pass by.

Sorry for the rambling and appreciate the feedback

. Thanks All.
