I have good reason to believe that at some point in the future a friend of mine would like to be more than friends. However, she is currently going through a break up of a long relationship and battling with trying not to lose him as a friend. They were friends for a long time before the relationship.

 

I'm still very much interested in her, but understand that nothing is going to happen or is worth attempting until she has processed things at the moment.

 

We're close, and I'll hopefully be seeing her over the summer for a short break. I think my interest is still clear, but doubt I can act on it. I don't want to pressure her with too much at once, she's already stressing about uni work.

 

So, what action do I take, for now she's a friend, but I don't want it to slip out of her mind that we're just friends but can't push for more just yet. Suggestions?

Giving this a bump

Dude, are you sure she's over him? Who wanted the break - him or her?

 

I mean, it's one thing to wanna have an amicable break up and remain "friendly" (i.e. if they run into each other walking down the street, they exchange friendly "Hellos" and part ways)...it's another to want the person to be your friend so you have an excuse to be looking them up, calling/texting/emailing, hanging out allegedly as "friends only"

 

Don't be her "orbiter", rebound, and/or "half-time" show while she waits for her bf to give her another whirl.
