she's probably as nervous as you are.

Lastly, going out to lunch or for a drink with someone whom you're not expected to be interested in is pretty much perfect, since it can be passed off as a professional lunch without harm on either side in worst case.
Just like that? Find another job? Leave a perfectly good one for a hope of a "maybe"? Sorry, I can find a lot of "maybe" situations outside of the workplace without doing something that dumb. It's stupidity to give up a job you are happy with for a shot at "maybe". Now, if I was really fed up with my job, why not find something better.

And dumb. No stupider than the SS man that stiffed the hooker though.

It will take more than a lunch every couple months to find out if this person is worth risking your job/career over. More than that and office gossip will be flying.
