I'm Conflicted

[Rant4356]

So basically I have been I’ve been interested in this one girl for about 5 years. The first 4 years I’ve known her she has had a boyfriend. About a year ago, she broke up with him. Had she not had a boyfriend I would have asked her out a long time ago. We had been friends during the duration but for the last few years she has been in Arizona while I have been in California and we haven’t really talked much. I recently saw her and I felt the same attraction that I did in the past. I’m conflicted about how to approach these feelings.

Do I act on them or leave it alone? Am I still in the friend zone? Are long-distance relationships a good idea?

Any advice would be much appreciated

If you like her enough, which seems like you do, then why not give it a try? Keep your communication and find out how she feels about you. Long distance relationship can work with lots of effort, trust and understanding from both partners. Good luck!

I think you should try it out, I mean just tell her how you feel or see how she acts around you, Does she treat you like a friend when you hang out? or is she flirty and giggly? Just reconnect with her try to pick up some signs or vibes to see if you can see where she's at. If that is too frustrating then be brave and just tell her how you feel or ask her how she feels. The worst thing that can happen is that she'll say no that she doesn't see you that way but if you guys are mature you can still be friends and see if you grow on her and who knows she may come around to the idea of dating such an awesome guy:p

You could try it . . . 1 year is probably enough time

And who knows, you're probably not in the friendzone anymore - the only way you can find out is if you ask

Yeah what the hell, if you think both of you could bare the strains of a LDR, give it a shot. You literally have nothing to lose.
