Hey seddit, I'm involved in a rather confusing position with a coworker right now and wanted a second opinion. So me and this co-worker have been getting rather close but I'm confused on where I stand and which moves I should make, let's call her 'G'. So this all started one day when both of us were at work one day. She said that she was hungry and forgot her lunch, now prior to this we really didn't speak to each other so I decided offering to bring her lunch next time would not only break the ice between coworkers but she's really cute as well so hey talking to a cute girl is always a plus. Brought her lunch and thus our weird relationship began, soon we started lightly flirting while getting to know each other, during this time she was in a rather stressful relationship so most of her topics were how her bf was giving her grief or stress or pissing her off. I picked up on the signs that it was a relationship that she wanted to be over, so I decided to push the envelope a bit and up the ante on my flirting with her, it was nothing hardcore simply just more in depth. Eventually I develop a crush on her. Despite me having a crush I didn't fall into the trap of oneitis due to us being coworkers, me not really wanting anything serious, and out of somewhat respect for her current relationship. I could of easily talked to other girls, she was just the one I was seeing and around the most so my focus was on her a bit. Anyway, one night I decided to give her a ride home and her convos with me were sexual in nature (how many times, where was the kinkiest place you did it, what was the best you've had, etc) despite the nature of it, I didn't suddenly take that as a dinner bell to suddenly lay it on her, but it did put the idea in my head that if she was comfortable with sexual talk that flirting with her was A-Ok. Fast forward a couple weeks and finally her relationship ends, once again I didn't just jump on chance. I wanted to give her space and whatnot. Pretty soon I was giving her a ride home again and that's when I decided to tell her that I liked her, so I did. She didn't take it the wrong way, but she was just awkwardly taken aback and then got out and thanked me for the ride and said we'll hangout soon, no biggie whether she responded positive or negative because atleast I manned up and told her I like her. After that 'G' still treated me the same, although she didn't respond how I expected, so I decided to turn down the flirting for a bit. Now things get a bit strange here. We started texting and soon we started flirting back and forth notoriously, nothing super flirty, but just light teasing and light sexual topics. Whenever we would work together we are inseparable, we always gravitate towards each other's work area and soon we started calling each other pet names with her calling me her "work babe", texting became more intimate as well with sweetie, babe, sweetheart, and the kissing and heart emoji being thrown around with reckless abandon. Now I dont care when she brings up other guys, I'm not with her so it doesn't make sense to even get upset. So we're cool with telling each other about things we do on weekends and stuff, she'll tell me about a club she went to and some guy she made out with and I'll tell her about my beach bonfire and how I made out with a random chick, etc. and then it'll default back to her play touches and us flirting in the workplace again. We even went hiking not too long ago and she was laughing cause a guy trying to go out with her thinks me and her were on a date to which I said "yeah it pretty much is a date" I think i'm in a good running with her, but then hear things from other co workers like guys bringing her food when she works overnight, etc. Whether these are lovers or just friends I have no idea since I don't pry into her life that hard. So where do I stand seddit? Like I said the most I'd like to do with her is f-close, we're not looking for anything serious and she's a great chick to have as a friend even if nothing were to happen, but I just wanna know if I should push the flirting more into something happening or just cut my loses and accept that I'm coworkerzoned. Knowing the answer will help me either focus more or redirect it somewhere else. thank you so much guys and gals
