I never add or communicate with current coworkers on Facebook. I like to keep a firewall between my work life and my personal life. Bleedover can cause problems.
I agree. I didn't spend all that much time in a white collar environment but even my short stint convinced me that romantic relationships in the workplace just make everyone's lives difficult, especially the manager/boss.
So, I have a dilemma. I'm pretty low in the self-confidence area, but a girl from my work, I believe, has been giving me signs of interest. A few times I look and see that's she made eye-contact with me, and on two occasions she's seen me go into the vending machine room, and went in herself. I know I should've started a conversation in there, but I freaked, and my mind went blank. :/ She even said hi, but my throat literally went dry and I didn't say anything. So now she probably thinks I'm not interested or a jerk.
I've always had social anxiety and I'm not very experienced with relationships, at all. My question, would it be too creepy to cold message her on FB and just say "hey" and see if I get a response?
Some details worth mentioning: Even though she works at the same location, she's not in the same department. I really can't spark up a convo with her without it being obvious what I'm doing. So, I'm kind of stuck on what I should do.
Never message a girl on Facebook. As a matter of fact, don't even friend women on there you do not know in real life. Recipe for disaster and she will think you're a creep.

If I wouldn't talk to her in person, I wouldn't message her on Facebook. I would personally introduce myself before going into texting and messaging. That's how I would handle things. So just strike up a friendly "Hi, how are you." If she wants to talk she'll talk. If she seems rather unresponsive, then move on.
If you see the person in real life it's pretty effen creepy.Op just practice with your guy friends.Make them wear a dress, talk in a girly voice and show some leg.
Hell naw!!! I ain't wearing no dress just because one of my friends needs to learn how to talk to a woman. He can wear the dress, LOL!!!
Perhaps, but the fear of rejection makes people do crazy things, things which they may not otherwise consider.
Only if they let it. What we need is perspective. We worry about saying no, but there are so much worse things than rejection.
