Yes it sounds like she's into me. Even a blind bat like me can see that but other people in/outside of work have said she has a boyfriend. I don't think she's ever mentioned having a boyfriend herself.
That's funny you should mention that. I once wore a formal to work once. All the (older, married) women commented on how good I looked and one girl my own age started BLANTANTLY hitting on me. I cannot emphasize how strong it was: she was almost bordering on harassment it was so strong. What was weird is that she lived with her boyfriend. I can only assume she was on her way out with him. Didn't matter because she left a month later never to be seen again.

Is there a way I can increase my opinion of myself?
This is not so easy because our society says that people who spend too much time in self-congratulation are arrogant. For this reason we learn to avoid self-congratulation which can increase negative self-opinions.
When Fiancée asked my past, I told her I regretted it in hindsight (sex before love) but would
never apologize for making what I thought was the best decision at the time. I could literally see her attraction growing once I stood up for myself and my decisions. Previously, I would have apologized profusely and acted like a puppy. I also remember a thread where someone was complaining about not getting responses: all his first messages were either groveling or putting a stranger on a pedestal. They have to prove to you as much as you have to prove to them!

True. All the girls from my past I didn't end up with could have been making way for me to meet an incredible girl. Then again since there's still a strong chance I'll go with whichever girl wants to go with me first I may yet end up with a mediochre girl.
When I first signed up for eHarmony, I literally could not find three women I would be interested in dating. I was naïve, inexperienced but looking back I WAS RIGHT. Once I started lowering my "impossible" standards, I lost my virginity but almost my mind. I'm being dead serious: I stayed with my first girlfriend, one of us would have been hanging from the ceiling. My Fiancee was literally everything on my checklist other than age but if I was with GF #1 I would be making plans to leave this Earth.
