So, a co-worker from another department gave me her number a while back, even though I had a girlfriend. She suggested hanging out, but I didn't text her.

Recently, I asked her about a restaurant, and she eagerly suggested we have lunch together. She also suggested a spinning class together, the same day, which I'm not into so I said no.

I find her attractive, but she's not usually my type personality-wise. I'm currently single and only interested in something casual, but I want to be sure I'm not misinterpreting her interest. I'm thinking of asking her for drinks alone to gauge her intentions, but I'm not sure if that's the best approach.

Any advice on how to handle this situation tactfully and respectfully would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I'm just getting out of a long-term relationship, and my seduction skills are pretty much non-existent. Could you provide some basic dos and don'ts?
