This was dumb. I am an HR Manager for a location with 500 employees. She's not in management. I could read interest in her from the way she looked at me. She's cute and smells nice, so while we were chatting once I asked her to lunch. That was on a Friday. During the lunch she asks if I act different outside work since at work I am "all about business." I tell I leave work at work and the way I act outside, that's for her to find out.
The following Monday she send an email, had been thinking over the weekend and thinks we should not pursue anything due to being coworkers. I did a face-saving reply, something like "glad to hear that since I was thinking the same."
No sweat since it is a bad idea. I probably came across as kind of boring during our lunch date since it was a busy place and I was nervous others from work would come in (it's a gossipy place). I have not done this before and now feel kind of tense and awkward when I go out on the floor. Plus I was the one who was told no first and her email had a definite vibe of no interest.
Since I decided to shyt where I eat, I could use some advise!
