Hey there. I do understand that you really fancy this girl. I don't believe in love at first sight, but I do believe in "the one" and that when you meet them, you will know.
That said, I read your rebutle on your thread about divorce and such. It such a messy thing these days and it is a shame the statistics are such. But just because divorce is generally accepted and common today, doesnt mean you have the right to make her into another statistic. Think of the emotional, physical, and financial burden this will have on her. Even if she does have a divorce, the likihood of her being ready to emotionally commit to another man so soon is very little.
Another thing I am worried about is that you say she is polite, but doesn't really open up to you often and she often shuts down on you. Unless there is more to the story that I don't know...this to me, demonstrates a lack of interest on her part. There is a psychological concept called confirmation bias. This means that people tend to seek out evidence that supoprts their hypothesis (i.e she looked angry when a girl talked to me, this means the girl likes me) and ignore any evidence that contradicts that hypothesis (i.e. she doesn't open up, she is married, she could have been mad for another reason etc...).
Sorry this is so long, but you seem in a tough position so I wanted to be as thorough as possible. Many people divorce today because of infidelity, but many couples stay together and fight to keep the marriage alive (she did marry this guy for a reason!) But from the info I was given, I don't see a clear sign on interest on her part and a divorce is something that will haunt HER forever (you have nothing to lose from pursuing her). I think you should take her well-being into more consideration. If you truly believe she is "the one," then things will work out.
The psychology angle is quite interesting, although i think it is too early to say for certain, conversation opportunities have been limited to brief 1 or 2 minute chats except on one occasion where there was a 2 hour working together situation, on this occasion, rapport was built and we got on very well, however the next two minute convo was the same relatively closed affair. That said, she is like this with everyone, male and female, and she is starting to open up more. honestly she is very shy, everyone says so. I will continue with my plan and keep you up to date.
