Three weeks ago this new girl at work comes on as a temp and pretty much since the first day she's been overtly friendly to me. My coworker buddy thinks I should hook up with her, but she really isn't my type. She's been acting and saying things that appear that she's interested (although this rarely happens to me, so I may be wrong), including a lot of personal questions which you normally don't get from a co-worker.She's 6 years younger than me and has a kid, but was never married. She's tall and very thin, has (dyed) blonde hair and an decent face, and seems really nice, but she's also very ditzy. She reminds me of Jessica Simpson, but she's not dumb like her. She said she acts like that because guys like it. I don't know if I should believe her that this is an act or she's really like that all the time. At first I thought she was really annoying, but now that I've got to know her she seems pretty nice. My buddy calls her "Loopy" because she's kinda weird.I've tried hooking up with coworkers in the past, but they've all been miserable failures. I've never dated anyone from work, but trying to has been disasterous.Well, apparently he talked to her yesterday and told her a whole bunch of things about me, like he is trying to fix us up. He told me she is looking for a guy to hang out with, date, or screw around with. He also told her that I was hung like a horse (he told her that he knows a girl that I've been with and she told him that) and now she's really coming on strong, and I've pretty much ignored her unless it's work-related. I fear she thinks I'm playing hard-to-get.My buddy (who I've known for years and is one of my best friends) is trying to get me to at least ask her to go to lunch but I haven't done that yet. I'd usually pass on this but I haven't been on a date in over a year and it's been a lot longer since I've had a relationship with anyone. I don't know if she and I have anything in common, and aside from a casual thing, I don't see any chance for a relationship there. The problem is I don't know what she wants -- a boyfriend, a friend-with-benefits, or a future husband and father for her kid. My curiosity is getting the best of me, but I'm showing some restraint because I am seeing more cons here than pros.I don't know how much longer she'll be there. They're supposed to make a decision soon about whether to hire her full-time.Any thoughts?

To be honest hon, reading through your post, it sounds like your actually don't really like her, and arn't interested. However, for some reason you feel like you ought to go out with her????? As for what she wanted from a relationship, well it could be all of what you listed. Personally if I were you, I wouldnt' go out with her, cos I think i would be wasting my time, but thats just me, and, im not a guy

I went to dinner with her tonight. It was fun. It wasn't much a date as just hanging out. She even came to my house and hung out for a little while. Nothing really happened, other than a hug when she left.She isn't really quite as ditzy as I thought. We talked a lot about work and she is really fun to talk to. I guess at this point we're just friends.She told me today that she knows Jenna Jameson (the porn star) - who I guess lives here - and does promo work for her. Whatever that means. She asked me if I'd be her date to Jenna's Christmas party. Of course, that's 7 months away...This could get interesting...
