So I really need some help on this one. Over the past year and a half I have become good friends with this girl I work with. Since first meeting her I have always enjoyed spending time with her no matter what we were doing. We've hung out together outside of work several times but only as friends, however time I have developed deeper feelings for her and would like to ask her out but I'm not really sure how she feels. I believe she has an idea of how I feel about her but we have never talked about it. At times she has showed signs that she might be interested in going out by suggesting we go out and get a drink, or going for a run or getting together to play tennis (we have done all of these a couple of time at least). Also a while back when she was going through a rough time she came to me several times to talk about it. Then the other week when I was dealing with a bit of my own rough time she made sure to check in several times to see how things were going. She also made a comment about how she didn't like seeing me down.
Finally a couple of weeks ago it was her birthday and I stopped by her office and made a comment about the nice flowers she got for her birthday, she quickly said the were from her aunt. The day after her birthday when I asked if she did anything fun for her birthday she said all she did was go to dinner with her parents and other family members. These comments as well as others she has made in the past couple of months about having boring weekends and not having a lot of friends in town suggest to me she at least wants me to know she has no one special in her life at the moment. Do you think I am right about this? How should I bring up the idea of going on a date with out making things weird between us if she is not interested?
