Should i ask her out? or When?

Hi

I know a girl that I have become I would say pretty good friends with. Both her and I have both just come out of relationships. Mine ended 2 weeks ago, hers ended a week ago. My split was easy, hers went down pretty rough.

This last friday, we hung out of a party and talked a lot. Everytime I looked her direction, we both just smiled.

My question is this, I would like to ask her out. But I am wondering if i should give her a chance to breathe after her last relationship. And if so, how long?

You shut your computer off now, call her, tell her you had a great time talking to her the other night, and would she like to go out for a drink, catch a move, or grab a bite to eat on Wednesday. Don't make it an "event" rather keep it casual, the same as you would with a friend.

Yes, I agree; although, to answer your timeline question, I think anyone's exit strategy should be to recoup and regroup before beginning a new relatlionship. How long? Depends, but several months at least.

Now, having said that, there is no reason why you can't do as Sera suggests because it is a great way to establish a good solid friendship and from this can come love.

Actually she called me, and we went out for a movie.

And we're going out for dinner on wednesday.

thanks for the advice.

Have fun, keep it light much like a friendship. Too many get caught up in rebound relationships! Be her friend and allow a relationship to slowly develop if there is mutual interest.
