Girl at Work

I really like a girl I work with, I’m planning on asking if she wants to go for a drink sometime, but I’m just not sure of the best way to do it. We get on great at work, spend a decent amount of time talking while at work, and we also occasionally talk a little over Facebook messenger away from work. In an ideal world I’d like to ask her in person away from work, but I rarely see her outside of work so that isn’t an option.

My question is, do I ask her at work, obviously when we’re alone, or do I ask her during one of our short chats over messenger? In person would be best I think, but then it would have to be at work which isn’t ideal, on top of that she doesn’t want to it’ll put her in an awkward position. The alternative is over texts, which is kind of a cop out in a way, but it will at least be while she’s at home rather than work, and will give her time to respond if she’s not sure how. Thoughts?

I’ve done both, texting is easier for me.

I don’t think there is a wrong option here. Important think is that you try, and if she says no leave it at that. But I bet that won’t happen.sounds like she is probably interested too.

Thanks for your reply, I think I may be over thinking things in all honesty, I have a habit of over analysing.

After more opinions if others read this thread.

No idea if you’ve made a move yet but considering you’re overthinking (I’m so guilty of that), I would recommend doing it in person. Less opportunity for you to overthink and possibly back out. PeterL is right though, there really isn’t a wrong option so good luck.

I think you should bring up the conversation of having drinks with her, like ask her what her favorite bar or whatever is and yada yada. Then later up in text say “hey we have to try out that place together. you free this day?”
