I've been working with this coworker for a while now and last time I saw her she told me she broke up with her boyfriend. We used to laugh and flirt together a few months back. We still laughed together when we met and I developed feelings for her.

I started texting her more than usually and visited her once at her department where I brought her snacks (this is btw a good approach because in the stone age potential mates used to bring fruits to their attraction to get her more comfortable and food always calms you and the other person down). We chatted a little until she kinda ignored me when colleagues were approaching.

A few days later I messaged her again and asked her if she has any plans on the weekend and if she wants to meet up (yes I also asked her personally before aswell) she was getting flakey about it telling me she is having dinner and the next day would go shopping with her mom. I responded with "aight, have fun". I messaged her again a few days later and told her that I would like to go out with her and that I don't mind what time. She responded with "I'll hit you up".

Now I've had bad experience with that response because it would turn out that people use it as an excuse to not say no to you. But I am not sure with her because she gives me mixed feelings. Sometimes it looks like she has interest in me and other times not.

What are your thoughts on this and how do I handle it?
