I met a girl. Should I go for it?

Yes.

Stop imagining in advance all the reasons why this is not the right time, or you’re not good enough, or as desirable as her ex. There’s probably a defense mechanism here. That is, if you convince yourself that this is not the right time, or you’re the wrong guy for her, then you spare yourself the discomfort of putting yourself out there and risking rejection.

In other words, don’t overthink it. She’s a new acquaintance and it’s not like you’re messing with a long established friendship or someone like that. The two of you are enjoying your interactions so far, so why not see where that could lead? Just my take on it. Good luck!

 

Go for it! And don't forget to come back here and let us know how it went

2 months is plenty long enough. She's comfortable enough being single that she didn't get with someone else after a week (which plenty of girls do). Two years sounds like a long time, but it was probably on the rocks a long time before they actually broke up. And it isn't your call whether she's ready to move on, it's hers. So make your move, ask her on a date, whatever. If she isn't ready yet, she'll tell you. And you lost nothing

Don't even think about what her ex was like, women don't always go for the 'obvious' guy anyway. She doesn't like him any more, so who cares. She likes you! Maybe?

 

Don't agree. You need much more time to get over a 2-year-relationship.
However, why don't you just get to know her and see where it all leads. Don't rush anything but don't be too cautious either.

 

No! It's pretty normal tbh. She may have known them longer than you, hence she didn't hug you cuz you are the new kid. Or any other explanation might do as well.

You can't. Nobody can win in a comparison game. So it's useless to even try.

My advice... do whatever feels normal and okay to you. (Don't push it and don't back down either.) In other words behave like yourself and you would be doing the best choice in the matter.

 

Yo man be careful.
Don’t fall for it so soon.
My experience is that girls are tricky.
It’s just timepass for many.

But only you can decide what’s best.
All of us giving advice don’t know what kind of background, intentions the girls in your area have, more particularly, what kind of views that girl has!
Be sure that you know what her views are!

However saying that you’ll go along well just because you have common political views is kinda risky, yeah?

All the best, be smart.
