Just found out a girl I like has become single

LegacyUser

I have just discovered that a girl that works in the same company but different department as me has just recently become single, I really like her because she's a good laugh and easy to slag and have a bit of banter with , we have chatted on face book a few times.I would really like to ask her out but there are 2 issues, A.firstly because she has recently become single she needs some time to get her head right and move on from the break up, who knows they might even get back together and B.Asking someone out in work is dodgy, probably best avoided unless I try to make as subtle as possible, any advice is greatly appreciated

Just start by taking her out to a lunch or a coffee. Rest will follow.

Give the girl space, be a friend and see what happens.

I broke up with my partner two years ago, we ended up back together after a week. Both of us knew we would. But two exes were texting me nearly within days.... I was half flattered but half disgusted at the same time.. Keep being her friend for another month or two before pouncing on her... Her head is probably a mess...

Realize, if you go for it, you're brining on a lot of potential drama to the workplace. Even if you are in different departments, that could become very messy

Maybe invite her out but be aware

- She might not want a relationship right now.
- If you do enter into a relationship you might end up being the rebound person.

Yup agree with keith about being the rebound, these things rarely if ever work! If your ok with being that i say go for it
