this woman started at my job about 3 weeks ago and tonight she asked me "do you have a girlfriend" We were all sitting around laughing and talking about the relationship of one coworker and then the woman asked me did I have one

Is that because she wants to know for her or someone else? I mean that's not like asing someone-"do you like italian foo?

If I ever ask a guy if he likes "italian foo" I will barely be able to keep a straight face.

If you were all having a conversation and laughing about a relationship, it could very well mean nothing more than "Do you have a girlfriend". Take it in context.

I pity the foo who don't like italian! Even more so when they are asing someone.

Perhaps she took your laughter and talking about the co-worker's relationship as a monkey fest. Maybe she was just asking to make a point.

I think you should ask her what she meant by that! It could be a conspiracy theory or something.

Yes, I think you need to give this a lot of thought and weigh all the ramifications. The whole dynamic of the presentation of the question needs to be carefully analyzed from the tone of voice to every nuance of body language. Did she lower her voice and lean towards you as she asked? Did she reach out a hand as if to touch you? When you responded in the negative, did the tip of her tongue pop out to lick her lips? You must consider all these things, Grasshopper, and then "see what happens from this point on ..."

Throw her a paper airplane and have her circle yes or no whether she likes you more than a friend. Maybe at lunch you can give her your snackpack as a nice gesture, too.
