I really like her, i cant stop thinkin about her, i cant sleep without thinking about her, i want to be with her and start to get to know each other more but she is 6 months pregnant which doesn't affect me, she split up from her ex b.f a few months ago and she said she likes me to and she finds me attractive etc..but just wants to be single for a while and concentrate on other things like the new baby. We txt each other outside of work but when i txt her or even try asking her to do something or go out she seems to never be able to, or she doesn't reply to my txts. I am worried if i start getting to full on she will get put off by me and will eventually tell me to get lost, she is leaving work soon and i am worried i wont see her again for a long time! Please help, my heads messed up. Thanks.

If you really like this girl, try to understand and respect that she needs some space and she has a lot to deal with right now. She is being sensible in not getting involved with someone in her condition.
Being on rebound is bad enough, but facing being single parent through birth and all is hell! The last thing she needs is the pressure of getting involved with someone else. She will have her hands full for a long time.
Do not panic, if she likes you, she will let you in but not as quickly as you would like. Be patient.
Try not to be to full on, just let her know that you are there for her. Tell her that you would like to see her say once per week just to find out how she is and take it from there.
Good luck xxx
