Q mainly directed to the ladies ^

[robinhood]

I was asked out one year ago by a female friend. At the time, I found her attractive but had just come out of a long term relationship so I couldn't handle it mentally. Incidentally, I found myself hanging around with her for a few hours a week ago and I think I've got a crush on her now. Stupid I know, but what do you think about the situation? I feel really bad and stupid for turning her down in the first place.

ask her out

 

not a lady but...

Ask her out. Explain that when she asked you out, the timing was just off and that you'd like to take her out on a date.

[Portage]

Ask her out. It is pretty simple. If the past comes up tell her exactly what you mentioned above.

 

Perfectly great opportunity. Don't waste it

[BeStrongBeHappy]

Yes, ask her out. You already know she likes you (or did once), so why not?

 

You can tell her what you told us, that you were just not ready for dating last year, but now you are and would like to go out with her.

[Cognitive_Canine]

As the others have stated. ASK HER OUT.

 

Tell her exactly what you've told us. That the timing was just bad because all you could focus on was your ex. And by spending time with her, you realize how silly you were to turn her down. She'll most likely say yes.

[civilservant]

Agreed with all the others here, just prepare yourself that she may well have not taken the knockback well and have moved on to something else. After all, a year is a long time.
