A few months ago, I started liking this girl; I thought she likes me because she used to look at me and other signs. A month ago I finally told her I liked her and would like to get to know her better. She said OK but that if I was looking for dating, she can not because she does not see herself with me. I was cool and told her that I do not date people unless I know them. So we agreed on hanging out like friends. But things did not work good; although she sent me a casual email and we had short chats at work, nothing came out, possibly because I'm shy. She was nice all the time. Days passed and I felt better and started treating her normal as nothing had happened; she also did like that because I guess she felt comfortable. I still like and I want to forget her but I still have hope; I know I should not. Now she dresses nice all the time and even stopped by my office and stuff; not that she is dressing nice for me or something. I would love to have her as a friend, really; but I do not know what to do or how to approach her; I do not want another rejection, this time as friends. She's 27 and I'm 36. What would you do?. What I did was to try to avoid her but when seeing her, treat her well...

 If you want her as a friend than try emailing her, She has made it clear she don't want a relationship and you should respect that, but I don't see why you two can't become friends. Do note that once you become friends its going to be hard for you to ever get out of this bracket. You say your shy why don't you try emailing her funny jokes that you can easily find in the internet copy and pasted it and shared them with her, this will break the ice. Good luck!
