So there's this girl at work I'm semi-interested in, we've been working together for some months and get along well. I've really been trying to stay away from messing around with co-workers, but recently I've been kind of tempted again.

 

The past week I've been on a massive roll with her. First, she got last minute tickets to go to this big Mamma Mia performance with her mother, she asked me if I could cover her shift that night and she would work for me this Sunday, I agreed, she was very grateful.

 

Then on Wednesday, she was looking a little down, I inquired if she was doing ok. She said she wants to break up with her abusive boyfriend, that they had a huge argument the night before and it was the final straw for her, that she gave him too many chances. Anyway, she went through with it, and she asked me if I could possibly work my Sunday shift as well, since she needed to move all of her stuff to her parent's house. I understood, and I gladly obliged her. She was genuinely grateful for everything, and thanked me many times, even saying that her mother wanted to say thank you as well. She's going to Disneyland next month with her family, she wants to buy me something from there.

 

Anyway, it doesn't end there, last night I got a phone call from her. She was at work, I was at home relaxing, she ended up asking me a quick work related question, but after that told me that she had a fight with the girl she was working with that night, said she was called some pretty nasty things I won't mention here. She asked me if I would be willing to back her up if she came in today on her day off to make a complaint about the girl. The girl she had a fight with has a pretty bad attitude and has been getting on my nerves for a while as well, so I agreed that I would help her out there. I don't think I ended up doing much, but I texted my manager(we're friends) and told her about the situation, affirmed that I was personally irritated with her as well, but apparently that was enough. She came in today and we had a quick meeting with the owner and our manager about what happened. She thanked me big time again for setting it all up for her life that.

 

So yeah, she's had a lot going on the past week, and I've been her knight in shining armour. I do stuff like this because I'm just a nice guy, I would have done it for anybody, but I would say she's pretty damn impressed with the guy I turned out to be. We're not friends or lovers right now, and I just wonder if this is the moment to capitalize if I really am interested. She just ditched her scumbag boyfriend, she has nothing bad memories about him in hindsight, then comes along Mike Awesome(Not the wrestler, me).

 

EDIT:

 

Plus I've already nailed first impressions with her parents before even meeting them, that's a plus.

So you sold out another employee to impress a girl. You are awesome! I would say go for it. You are definitely very sure of yourself. Especially if she just ditched her boyfriend, she is prime for a rebound.

I didn't sell anybody out, and I wasn't doing it to impress her. As I said, I would have done it for anybody, in this case, it was the correct opportunity for me to have my say about the employee I dislike.

Girls generally aren't attracted to guys they find easy to use, that jump through hoops for them on command. She used you to cover her shift, blew you off when it came to the payback and then had the nerve to ask for another favor. Which you put up with. Can give it a shot but I would bet she's already placed you in the friend category.

You are being used.

Yeah, you're not a 'knight in shining armour'. You're a quick fix to her work problems. She's using you.

Definitely being used bro. Covered her shift and then covered the shift she was suppose to cover? Give up now before it gets much much worse.
