Wow, I never knew this thread existed. Time for me to unload I guess

So I just moved to a new town. At this point it looks like it'll mostly be a summer thing. Anyways, I started off having a thing for this girl that works at Barnes and Noble down the street from my apartment. I'd go in there and try to find something to buy or something I needed help with so I'd have an excuse to talk to her....I never actually talked to her though, but somebody else there that knows my name called out to me by name while she was standing next to him and started talking to me. So she at least knows my name...or did, I haven't been there in at least 2 weeks.

Then I just start working a new job and develop a crush on another co-worker. We decide to hang out socially with some other workers after our shift at this place. My apartment is down the street so I say I'll meet her there and run home to change...turns out the place was closed and I had no way to contact anybody so I just went home and watched tv like a bum. Figured I'd figure stuff out the next day and hang out again. Wasn't there. Go in again next day...not there. Finally after 5 days of her not being at work I start asking around and somebody says he thinks she got fired and told me to message her on the website where we get our schedules. So I do that...turns out she was in a big car accident that wrecked her vehicle and sent her to the hospital. She's doing fine and recovering but it was still pretty bad and she's in a lot of pain still. Pretty terrible. We sent a couple of messages back and forth, she apologized for inviting me somewhere that was closed lol, but that's about it. I probably won't see her again for a while. I did manage to finally find her on Facebook though. She's single, but I really think her and some guy are getting "there" but it could just be a close friend.

Now...here's the thing. If i'm only in this area for a couple of months...should I pursue either of them? Should I give up on the second girl because 1. we work together 2. I won't see her for a bit and 3. she seems to be into this other guy? We get along pretty well and I detected some flirting when we were last working together, so maybe. Maybe I'll only leave a couple of eggs in her basket and focus on other stuff for now. To be honest though, if all that comes from her is friendship, I'm totally okay with that. I don't know if I even want to date anybody at the moment. What I do want though is somebody to go on dates with...just not actually be in a relationship. Does that make sense? Does that make me a bad person?

Then there's the girl at the book store. I haven't even talked to her. She's seen me and like I said she heard me talking to another worker (and she seemed to be paying attention to the conversation). I still don't know anybody around here aside from a few co-workers. Maybe I could go in and say "hey, I'm fairly new and don't know anybody around here." or something to that effect.

I don't even know if it's worth pursuing anything because I might not be around here for more than a few months. What I do know though is that there are a lot of cool places for dates but I need a girl to go on a date.
