Asking a girl out a second time?

[Anonymous]

Asked a girl out after she just broke up from a 1.5 year relationship (2 days after). She said she couldn't grab a coffee "right now" and was focusing on healing herself. How long should I wait to ask her out again or should I wait for her to approach me if she is interested?

Thanks guys I think I'm going to go with Jennifer's plan... Will update you all in a month or two on how it goes.

While Jennifers answer seemed to be the best at the time. It was actually Anonymous's answer that was correct... Guess I'm an idiot 😂

Don't try to rush into things - tell her you really respect or like her and am available for her when she thinks she is ready and she can contact you any time she feels comfortable. Then if she doesn't reach out after a certain time, you might reach out with an invitation for something low key like a walk by the park or a fishing trip etc... If it is an activity and not an intimate setting, there is less pressure for romantic intimacy and she might not be able to be close to a guy right now.

Don't be a fucking idiot. "focusing on healing herself" is always a fucking lie.

Wait a few weeks and ask her how she is and if she'd like to hang out

Why don’t you sleep on it and make the best decision that you can

She isn’t interested, that was just an excuse to not hurt your feelings
