You should go for it

u should give it a lil bit of time...look I just broke up with my bf as well..cuz our feelings werent the same...and im heartbroken by my other ex...really I wanna move on and well there is this guy who has a crush on me and me as well..but myslef I think I need my time and space to actually think twice if I shoul let him enter my life cuz I like him alot and he knows I do but not as much as I do..and well me and him think we should just be friends and talk for now...u should do the same..keep on being next to her as a friend..if u are a good friend to her she will see u are a caring guy and when the time that u ask her out comes she will say yes with a great joy..and well make her happy

if I was in your position,then I would write her a letter,telling her the way u feel about her,but,,,,also saying that you will wait,until she feels most comfortable,its best to write a letter,because you dont need to be nervous about anything,because you can write all u want to say on a little piece of paper,and feel confidence about what you are saying,and when u give it her,just watch her face light up,then just approach her,give her a cuddle,and tell her that u are there for her.:)

Text her and ask her out , or email her, that way you wont be so nervous
