That's a tough call. I think you could be her friend and maybe make some plans with her before she moves. If she's receptive then watch for red flags that she's not over the other guy. I met my boyfriend about a month after he broke up with his ex of 3 years and we've been together for almost a year...so don't go by strict guidelines on time. My boyfriend had been over the relationship her was in for about a year before they ended it, so he was ready to move on. But, like I said, just gage her response and do what you think feels right. I could just see you not doing anything and then kicking yourself later, you know?

Take a chance but still respect the situation she's in and the possibility that she might not be ready for anything with anyone, not just you. Good luck!

Try to pick the friendship back up, but if she was serious about the engagement, you Don't want to be the rebound guy.

Make an effort to see her and hang out.

If you're good enough friends, I think you'll know when she's moved on and ready for a new relationship.

If you want to date this woman, ask her out to dinner or whatever. If she's not ready to date, she can say no. If she agrees, just go out and have fun. I don't know how you or she could possibly determine whether you want to be in a relationship with each other until you've gone out at least a few times. Also, if you're already in the "relationship" mindset, be prepared to date her, really like her, and then be really bummed when she moves. If you can't live with that possibility, don't bother.

Tell her how you feel, apologize (not in so many words, maybe not apologize, but at least explain why you didn't ask her out when she was with other dude) and ask her out. Don't worry about it if she moves or not.

I don't know, dude. I'd be totally creeped out if some guy told me he was into me out of nowhere and wanted to ask me out years ago.
