<human>: So my co-worker [26f] and I [38m] had a drunken escapade about a week and a half ago. We've worked together for about six months. She has been cool and open with me since. We've lunched together and hung out again after work, but nothing physical since. I can't get a read on her though -- I'm very interested in getting to know her romantically, even if we have to keep it hush-hush, but I can't tell what she's thinking. 

She has said she's fine with what happened between us, and we chat and talk throughout our workday, but it feels like a really strong friendship, and not flirtatious or romantic. I have to add that she's just out of grad school, so she's younger than me, and I sometimes wonder if this is just par for the course for a woman her age -- hooking up with a co-worker/friend, but nothing beyond that. It's absolutely KILLING me, because I'd like to push things a bit (even if it remains casual). 

I can't figure out what to do. I suggested taking our relationship out of the bar setting (which she said she'd be willing to do), but I feel like I'm tossing out chances for her to say 'lets get together tonight' that she NEVER jumps on. I'm afraid to ask her out because I don't want to seem desperate, overly anxious, or more into this than she is. 

Is the answer obvious, and I'm missing it?  Or do I need to really chill out and back off?

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: should I wait for my co-worker to make a move, ask her out, or forget what happened between us?
