writes: We're friends for sure, good friends. But I sense that maybe she may like me, we've only known each other well for maybe 6 months, before that she had a boyfriend and we hardly ever talked at work. Then when she broke up I turned it on and now we're pretty close. I'm crazy about her, and I think I should take a chance. How should I do this? We've gone out alone a few times, even for dinner, but they've never really been proper dates, she may have considered them simply chill time.Next time we go out should I just sit her down and tell her that i'm fine with being friends but if theres any way to go farther i would like that? Or should I try take her hand or put my arm around her and see how she reacts? Or should I simply ask her to dinner (although she may again consider that simply chill time)?

Yeah, don't rush it, but, why don't you drop an "I like you" at some point?

Just test the waters. Don't rush into it, but initiate more physical contact. Ex.: Riding in the car together, her hand and yours both really close. Edge yours a bit closer and see how she reacts.
Longer hugs, but not awkwardly long. Maybe a friendly peck on the cheek. If she reacts positively maybe move up to putting your arm around her.
Just take things slow, but keep showing signs that you want to take a step further. If she doesn't reciprocate those feelings however, try not to freak out about it.

you should be able to look into her eyes and read her mind, if this girl has been moving around with you and honours you invitations for dinner then i think is time to hit the nail on the head, pick courage and tell her your mind, nothing bad in expressing ur God dam feeling. quick before another fast guy takes on you. Cheers

Don't rush it!!!
I've been there, so your first step is to find out whether you put yourself in the FRIEND status, cause if so, you'd break what good relationship u have with her. You're on the safe side if not, but if you are, then start diverting that impression before confronting her.
