I hope you get interested in someone else soon, who is interested in you.

If someone is worth having then it is worth waiting for and if your friend is also chasing after her, then he could spoil it for himself, because she will get sick of him being around and tell him to get lost. Either way, just be respectful of her wishes and i am sure the best person will win. If it isnt you then be prepared to move on and ask someone else, there are plenty more lovely girls out there and you deserve to meet one.
take care

Or she might be like me. When I finnish a relationship (or have been dumped by somebody) I like to take time out to be on my own. Clear my head so to say. Don't pressure this girl, give her the time she needs. The best thing you can do is to try to be her friend. If you treat her nicely, when she's ready to date again, she'll think of your kindness and might consider you for a date.

You don't know what is crossing her mind, so you can't possibly know when she will want to date again. You should avoid becoming a nuisance, so let her be.
If she does date your friend, you will know that she was messing with you, and you will be able to move on. If not, then you might have a chance.
Some people are ready to date again very soon after their relationships. Some others are not, but do get involved with someone else as a rebound, as we know. I guess you should avoid being just a rebound.
Wait and see.
