Remain friends but give this woman space as the grieving process takes time, changes and can last several years sometimes. If you want to wait for her then do so but do not close down other opportunities or your social life. You are thinking of yourself but she has been very honest with you about her feelings. She sounds like a sincere person and you need to be honest with her too about your feelings for her - but that ultimately you are there for her in whatever way she needs so will not pressurise.

Letting someone go takes time and unfortuantly it does not work like in the movies, you loose them one day at a time and piece by piece. She has to do this in order to be mentally healthy. Aside from being just her friend right now I am afraid your stuck.
