Hi, thank you for reading this.
At work a new girl started this week. I imediately go for busting her balls. Such as a coworker said something like "I'm trying to talk to this pretty girl...." and I was like "what girl" I used the get 5 questions wrong. It seemed like she was really into me. On the second day after i met her I gave her my number and told her about me and a few coworkers playing tennis and having a good time the next day. I told her to call me at 1pm. she sent a text at 1:45. I told her to meet me at walmart. We walked around walmart for an hour bought a bocce ball and volleyball set. Then we went to a resturaunt to meet a few other people and have a drink. I had a couple beers she doesn't drink apparently. everybody comes back to my place we play some volleyball sit around and talk. Seems like she's having a good time. She said she had to go so i walk her to her car. I didn't put on any moves I completely froze. I said "thanks for coming" ugh worst thing to say ever. She leaves, I text her later to make sure she found her way home. Tell her she was kindof a fun girl. and asked if she would like to go out with me the next day without all of the people. She said she didn't want to date a coworker. she didn't want the drama. I know that was such a copout nobody would not date someone they were interested in because they worked with them. I understand I didn't escelate quickly enough. and the goodbye was horrible. What could I have done differently? Also how can i salvage the situation??

Thank you very much,

Not really a cop-out. Work is like high school, alot of whispers. I havnt and never will date a girl from my work, unless I know she works different shifts than me for the drama and random bs that comes with it.

Just work together, flirt and have fun. If you try too hard your the needy coworker since due to the small environment.
