There is a women at my work I have been flirting with over email. I have asked her out a couple of times but she says she got involved with someone at work before and promised herself not to do it again as it went horribly wrong (this of course could just be a typical female excuse) I have been having a real laugh with this women but all over email.
I have been chipping away at this one for several weeks and think I am getting under her skin but need to know if its going to go anywhere but got a feeling if I ask her she will run as it will sound needy.

Any ideas guys.

are there any rules to how many times you ask her out. the thing is she is very quite and reserved and actually belive she is just playing cautiuos as never see her talking to any other men (its a big work place 1200 people) she isnt a lesbian either (i have actually asked lol). Problem is I asked her out before I started studying this stuff and she said no, since reading all this stuff the flirting has rocketed, I asked her out again to go for a coffee at lunch time she said she couldnt make it so I said after work and she said she couldn't make to which I told her I have the 3 strike rule and wont ask again and she has to ask me (all done in c&f way). she keeps emailing and even went in a strop when I told her I wouldnt ask again lol. How do I bring this to a will you or wont you without asking her again?

Great advice, will give it a try if she doesnt respond to that will just move on, at least its been good practice.
