I met this woman at work and we have seen each other in social circles with other friends at work. I though we really hit it off by the way we would always wind up speaking with each other away from the rest of the group. This has happened several times over the past few months. I thought I would take the bull by the horns and ask her out to lunch during the week. She accepted the invitation and we had a nice lunch with conversation. We did that a few times but when I asked her out to dinner she said she had issues she needed to work out with her boyfriend who she was going through a hard time with. She said she knew that relationship was over but before she could enter another one, she needed to finish that one. I really like her. Should I wait for her? I think we would be good together.
To answer your question: no. She should have mentioned the boyfriend a little earlier in the conversation. If someone has a boyfriend, that's a committed relationship and that would seem worth mentioning just a tad earlier during the past few months.
It doesn't appear as if she's interested in you as much as she was interested in finding out if she was still attractive to other men. Now that she knows she is, she can handle her business with her boyfriend (who you shouldn't be surprised if she ends up with).
Do not wait for her, instead go on about your business and if you happen to be available if she decides she wants you perhaps you can be together then - though I certainly wouldn't encourage you to get involved with her.
