Does she like me or just something else?

I've been lurking around this forum for a while and seen some good advice, so I need help with 2 things.

 

I work in a small company and there is this girl I've had a small crush on ever since meeting her. One problem is she's my boss' granddaughter, supervisiors daughter, and well... half of the company is family members of my boss. She normally comes to work during the non-college times. I would have asked her out the first time, but I was in fact in a relastionship at the time (which I later on found out that my ex-girlfriend cheated on me). I became "friends" with her short of speak and ddid get her IM screen name and I talk to her once in a while. However, nothing more then friendly. I've also heard from her dad that she wants a boyfriend.

 

Around the time I broke up with my girlfriend was around summer, I asked her out (course, her and 20 other girls too, lol). She said no to me mostly cause she was into someone else which was true cause I heard she met someone at a party her family was holding. It was also around the time she came back from college and started working at the office again, I was a little bit different to her and she knew it. However, she also knew I broke up with my girlfriend at the time (in fact she knew before I asked her out) and I was mostly trying to find a new one so I was a little bit more "friendily" with her then normally. I could tell she didn't really like it... cause I asked for her phone number and wouldn't give it too me and in fact wouldn't give me any more info. I pretty much know she doesn't talk to the guy she met anymore and heard more that she isn't really looking for a relastionship.

 

A little bit later on, I got over my ex-girlfriend and I was normal again. When she came back in the Winter, She in fact gave me her phone number and a bit more personal information. I ate lunch with her a few times (but at the time her brother who I'm friends with was with us) and was a bit better friends with her.

 

Just this past summer, she was with her sister most of the time (her brother left for another job). However, some of the times we went to eat lunch together just the two of us and it was really different, we just talked for a while and had a fun time. (Her whole family and I eat lunch together) She just left back for school but the day she left, I asked her if we could spend some time together in the city she's going to be living at, she said she would like that. (The city isn't "that" far away from me). So I told her I'd call her or IM her if I was going to be in the area.

 

My question is... is she just looking for me just as a friend or should I try to become better friends with her and try to get into a relastionship with her? I believe friendship is the best kind of relastionship. or should I just go look for someone else. She somewhat knows I like her cause I asked her out once, but I was stupid asking her out then and she knows I was stupid cause I somewhat told her.

Friends, friends, stay in the friends-zone.

 

I am not for dating people you work with, and specifically in this case it could be a disaster. It is a family business. So don't mix business and pleasure.

 

Move on, find someone else and if you want, stay friends with her. She knows that you are potentially interested in her, so she knows where to find you. But I cannot stresss enough that I think getting involved with her would be a BAD thing.
