So there is someone at work that I'm interested in. Actually, last year at this time I chatted a bit with her, and asked her to lunch on our first conversation. She kind of told me ok, but then we really never did anything. And a couple of weeks after that when I asked again, she said she was a little busy, and said maybe. Ever since, i haven't spoken to her, but when I pass her by in the halls I smile and say hi, she does the same. Recently, I've noticed that maybe she's interested in that when I say hi how are you, she responds back how are you. I don't start a conversation, but just say I'm fine. Well, I know all this sounds pretty superficial, BUT I'm thinking to try asking her out again...probably after the new year. Between now and then, I will try to engage her in some chit-chat to see how responsive she is. My question...should I try again...or am I just beating a dead horse? We work in different groups, so there is minimal interaction beyond running into each other in the hall or cafeteria.

What would you have to lose by trying? The worst thing that will happen is she will say no.

 

But rather than say "sometime", ask her with a firm plan. A time and place. This will tell you whether she is interested or not, because it's not a "maybe" situation.

I wouldn't wait until after the new year though. I would do it right this minute. (or next time you see her).

Yea I know, what do I have to lose. It just seems weird to ask her again at the same time of the year I did last year.
