How could I have so badly misread the signals from a woman at work? (how to, attractive)

There are acres and acres of posts from guys who are wondering if she is "flirting" with them, when all the rest of us are howling that a smile and a hello are not necessarily flirting!
As for the "blatant stare" well she'd probably just remembered she'd forgotten to get something out of the freezer for dinner that night.
Men consistently mistake female politeness for interest.
Whyyyyyyyyyyyy??????
No wonder some women are getting b.tchy when you open doors for them. If they say "thank you" you guys might assume a blowie is 5 minutes away.
OP, all men on CD - ALL OF YOU..............
There will be no doubt or misunderstandings or need to post on CD, with a woman who really likes you!!!
You've heard of "womanly wiles" right? Even the dumbest girl has them, and uses them, when she sees a man she likes.

Right. Women complain all day long that they keep sending their crush signals and he catches none of them and that they refuse to make the first move.

Wow I completely agree. A woman who is nice to you doesn't mean she wants you. I wish men would get that. If a woman is nice to you she's just being nice. If she wants to sleep with you...let's just say there would be no doubt she wants to sleep with you.
OP, I had the exact same thing happen, except I Facebook messaged the girl instead of texting her. The thing about Facebook messaging someone who isn't your friend is that the message is sorted into a folder called "Other" and they don't get a notification about it. I didn't know that at first. She probably didn't message me back because she didn't see it. Still, I feel a little creepy and pathetic knowing that I looked up her Facebook and then messaged her.

And unbelievable as it may seem, there's a whole range of interest in-between "let's be friends", and "let's get a hotel room". For example, there's "let's go to lunch and see if we have any common ground", and "let's do a couple of coffee dates so I can figure out if I feel safe with you before we decide to date".

If my name was, oh let's say, Bratt Pitt, what woman would ask me for 'lunch to see if we have any common ground'?

How many guys are Brad Pitt? You're talking about maybe 10% of the male population that would be at that level or even in the general ballpark. The "lunch so I can scope you out" is way more common than the Brad Pitt-ambush. This is C-D, gotta keep it real.
If that was the only thing, I'd agree. But to me the other two times we ran into each other she seemed interested. If those were not signals that she was interested, then I'm screwed. I guess I can't assume anything until she actually comes out and says something ..
What you call interested most people consider basic civility.

Text message to flirt with someone the first time? Bad idea.
Text Message from Company phone to another Company phone to flirt? Really bad idea.
Maybe she is smart enough to figure that out.
You want to take someone for coffee? You walk up to them, you smile, you ask them, "Would you like to go for coffee this afternoon at 4:30?"
Whatsamatter with you guys? This is not difficult.
Text! Sheesh. I'd ignore you just for being a tool. Grow a pair. Women like that!
