About 2 years ago at college I ended up getting paired with this girl for a school project and ended up liking her, but at the time, she had a boyfriend so obviously I couldn't do anything about my feelings for her. Since then, we have kept in touch a little bit with a few conversations here and there and she actually just broke up with her boyfriend. So my question is this. I have always had a crush on her and now that she is single I really want to ask her out but I also want to be sensitive to the fact that she just broke up with her boyfriend whom she had been with a while so I don't want to do it immediately. Second, we are still on summer break and won't be returning to school until September so how can I hint that I have an interest in her when we still have a month to go before going back to school and how can I hint that I like her once we get back to school in September?Lastly, was that semester we worked on the project together and the few conversations we had enough to put me in the friendzoneAny help is appreciated, thanks!!

There is no such thing as "the friend zone"!!! You need to hurry up and make your intentions clear before she starts going out with soneone else! Do not wait with letting her know you like her, although tell her you can wait a bit with dating if she thinks it is too soon. But not everyone likes to sit around and wait for ages after a breakup! So dont take too long before you let her know your intentions, date or no date.

The way I found out that she was single was because I was on her FB page. It didn't show up at all in my newsfeed. So im worried that if I show an interest in her she may wonder how I found out that she was single. Any tips?
Thanks again

If I were you I would have as much contact as I could with her in the summer break. Try not to discuss her ex at all don't put yourself in the position of an agony aunt. If you get the chance do fun things together and it may progress. No pressure just fun let her see what could be good luck xx
