How do I (22m) distance myself from a coworker (23f)?

So with help from advice here, I’ve decided my coworker (we’ll call her V) isn’t worth the effort, or at the very isn’t interested in me, so I kinda wanna distance myself.

Background: We had one mini date to the mall about a month ago, but our second “more official” date was interrupted when she got into a car accident (she scratched someone’s car and drove off. I was in the mall with a broken phone so I didn’t know until 20 minutes after.). Ever since then I’ve tried setting up 3 separate dates with her but she’s always told me she’s busy or can’t (important detail: she’s given no other openings). I generally go by a rule of 3 as far as rejections so I’m over it. Someone suggested she could just have a lot going on but she left me on read Wednesday so even if that is the case I don’t think she’s worth the effort anymore (I’m a big believer that there is no such thing as a person who doesn’t like to text, there are just people who don’t like to text YOU [or in this case me]).

Anyway I set up a small little date with another coworker (we can call her D). I’m not romantically interested in her but I have been meaning to check out a winery near me and she’s a single mom so I’m sure she could use a chill day too. My concern is fighting in the workplace. I don’t think I’m worth fighting over but I’d like to distance myself from V. We have a sort of “work wife” relationship and I’d like to scale that back because my interests have changed.

What is the best way to go about this? Should I just be upfront or is this a show don’t tell situation?
