Alright, to make this brief. There is a girl I work with. She's probably been working there for about four months now. We've become pretty good friends over that time. We hang in and out of work, text, and do various other things. This entire time I've just considered us friends. We have a lot in common, such as gaming and nerd interest, and talk about that stuff a lot. I'm going to break this up by signs that show interest and signs that show no interest.

Interest
The past month or so, she's been saying strange things in front of me. For example, one day she opened up a photo book of a wedding and pointed to the married couple saying "You and I one day." After that though we went into a joke about using our marriage to get free stuff and I just laughed it off at the time. Then today, it happened again. A picture came out of an older couple holding hands, walking on a beach. She said "You and I in our olden days." This time no joke followed. Before I left work today, she asked me if I would marry her, jokingly I responded "sure". Turns out, after I left she spend the rest of the night talking about me, going on about the marriage thing, and how good we would be together. She's also randomly told me about her fetishes for some reason too.

No Interest

The only one I can think of, is that she's good friends with another co-worker. But she never calls him anything other than best-friend. She also has told me she makes friends with guys she doesn't like, which I'd call us friends so maybe she doesn't.

Anyway, when it comes to women and if they like me or not, I tend to become quite daft. I usually miss the obvious signs or completely take something for more than what it is. So in this situation, would you say this girl has feelings for me? Or am I making something out of nothing? I'd like some outside opinions that aren't my co-workers possibly giving me shit. I'll answer any questions as well.

The internet isn't going to be able to tell you whether she likes you or not. She's sending some pretty strong signals, but the only definitive way of knowing is asking her.

However, the question I would be asking isn't whether she likes you, but whether you really want to go out with someone who proposed 3 times before you even started dating.

Well since someone already covered the ape shit internet law of social interaction I guess I'll go for the real world anwser.

Sadly it can be anything between a friends forever(only ever friends that is) and romantic interest scenario, I couldn't even count how many times friends would flirt with me simply because they were so sure nothing will come from screwing around like that.
And it could just as well be that she is plainly nudging you for a date, can't ever know for sure until you ask, but do expect both outcomes and anything in between.

Alright, so thank you everyone in this thread. Today, I told myself I'd just nut and ask her what she felt for me. She admitted she found me attractive and asked some hypothetical about what might happen if we decided to date. But no straight answer. Trying to be as non=pushy as possible, I told her to take her time and answer whenever she felt ready to. So again, thank you everyone who told me to just ask.

Dude! Exude that confidence and just ask her out! Sitting down, asking her if she has feelings, yada yada sounds very contrived and planned. Lots of build up, not enough action. If there aren't any sparks and you're just kind of hanging back, maybe you should move on?

That's just me. When I like someone, I generally try to go for it.
