Do you think she's interested?

Okay okay. I generally don't ask for advice online but I thought "what the hey" and decided to do it. Now there is girl who I work with and like all the guys I work with flirt with her and trying to you know, get with her. Now she and I joke a lot and we talk even though she's fairly new, I saw her a lot when she was a customer(I work at a Target). Now she works with me and after a few days of talking to her I started to like her. A couple days a go I decided I was going to ask her out. The following day I summoned up the courage to ask her out to get some coffee, and she wasn't really looking at me but she said yes and we exchanged phone numbers. I haven't set a date yet because well, we both have schedules and I'm trying to work something out so that we can get together.

I was just curious...now I may sound a little dense or oblivious but it's a rare occasion for me to actually ask a girl out. In fact she is one of the first girls I've ever actually gone up to and asked out on a date. Just wondering if maybe she accepted because she didn't want to hurt my feelings or if it was because she was genuinely interested.

SIDE NOTE: Just to let you know, I have tried to contact her, and she hasn't responded to my texts but then I recalled she was getting a new phone. I sent a text but because one of the digits on the number she gave me looked weird, I couldn't tell if it was an "8" or a "0" so I by changing that one digit, I sent a "hi" message to both and didn't get a response. Maybe she hadn't got her new phone yet, I'll find out though.

And I know this wasn't very detailed, but there wasn't really a lot to tell so I wanted to keep my story simple and to the point.

Update:

@wayne: Well gee that was the plan. heh heh. Just wanted some insight.

Update 2:

@Lee: Yes I understand that and that's what I'm going to do.

    It shows you don't normally ask a girl out, because you did so extremely poorly. Listen, as i truly want to help you, but you have to learn from your mistakes first.

    You asked her out, and yet couldn't set a date! You got her number and couldn't even get contact with her! You have to be a tactical leader when it coems to dating, so no mistakes next time!

    You are making mistakes all over the place! You asked her out to coffee without agreeing upon a specific date, you were unsure the phone number you got was right! You have to be more organized.

    As for the girl, she was just being polite. How do I know? You said so yourself, she was getting a new phone. Why would she give you her phone number while planning on getting a new phone? Even ebtter, if she kept the same number, she's not responding to you for a reason, just like how she did not agree upon a specific date with you for coffee.

    Now I will say you did right by asking for a coffee date, and even better by just going for it. Keep this part of you. Plus, coffee is a great first date. However, the way you went about it was all wrong.

    To keep it simple and to the point as you like it, follow these intructions, so you never make these mistakes again.

    1. Get a girl's number first (Home phone number preferably, because the cell phone is a girl's nastiest weapon. If she does not have a home phone, take the cell phone number then). Wait a WEEK to call her. Every guy I have said this to has met with success, why? Because it shows to her you have a life and you can take her or leave her, which makes her that much more attracted to you. Plus she can't get rid of you when you're not there, can she? So no talking to the girl after you gget her number.

    2. You will call a week later, and be on the phone for 5 minutes. You will then ask the girl out to coffee, giving a SPECIFIC day and time. As a bonus, I'll tell you this. Only ask her out for a weekday, because her weekends are filled with guys she is going out with one time for a free movie or dinner.

    3. You will be fun, and keep the conversation light and funny. You will not talk about yourself, especially your problems, and will keep the conversation on her. Girls like talknig about themselves the most, so why not give them what they like.

    4. Take a girl out only ONCE a week on weekdays until she asks why you don't ask her out on weekends. This is your invitation to do so.

    I'm glad you decided to ask for advice online, so I had this chance to make you aware of what to do next time.

    If any other questions, email me personally and I will be glad to answer your questions when get to your email.

    Cheers, and good luck!

    Sounds like it could go either way, but I would be inclined to say that she's interested in you. The next time you see her, maybe say that you tried to text her but think maybe it didn't go through or something, but that you'd still like to take her out. If after that you're still not able to get ahold of her outside of work, then I'm sorry to say you might have to let this one go... but so far it sounds like the evidence is in your favor. :)

    If she said 'yes' initially, then she must be at least a bit interested!

    Don't bombard her with texts, bc that's just annoying. Did you try calling her or just texting her? And just ask her casually when you see her at work if she got your text. Or ask her if she got her new phone yet.

    Know this,,,.a girl likes when guys show boldness bc it displays their interest and desire.

    Best to you!
