I work with a girl who has always had a boyfriend but recently split with the guy. Even when she was dating him she hinted at being interested in me. I never went for it because of her relationship and I was interested in someone else. For about a week now, this girl with has been throwing signals at me like it's her job. I'm still trying to get on my feet from a girl who completely used me. Should I just tell this girl to stop and keep it professional? Or should I see if she just wants to "play" around since I am not looking for something serious with her? Or is it just a not a good idea since we work together and things could go downhill real fast? What do you guys think?

Depends on how closely your jobs are related.

Are you in the same team, same section, same floor?
If you're in a larger organisation and not in the same chain of command, then go for it. Because if you do kick things off and it goes pear-shaped then your boss is not having to arbitrate between two warring team members.

If it's a small team then I'd advise against it, unless you're both very upfront about it just being a bit of fun.

You definitely don't want to get into something emotional with someone you work closely with. FWB may be ok.

I wouldn't put my career at risk. Avoid it and control your tendency.
