A friend of mine,that I like as more than a friend,has recently become single again-after their relationship ended.
I got the impression in the last year that they may have feelings for me-but I`m not sure.
I obviously haven`t told them how I feel whilst they were involved with someone else-but now that`s over,how long should I wait before I say something?
I don`t want to seem insensitive,as i don`t know who ended the relationship-but i`m frightened if I wait too long,they may meet some one else.
We`re not kids-so any sensible advice would be great-thanks

Tell them how you feel and if they feel the same way take it from there. If not than tel them that you understand and that you still want to continue to be friends and hopes this doesn't make things okward. But tell them and get it over with before they move on to someone else.

If they're feeling bad about the break up, try and console them, and be the person they immediately think of when they need cheering up, if that makes sense.
Then just hint, subtle flirting and after a couple of weeks, go somewhere with them, make sure they have a great time, then just ask what they think about you both getting together.
Or, if you have the courage, instead of asking; just kiss them.

flirt with her for the next few times you see her. If she responds well then take things a buit further like kissing her after this you can talk about how you feel.. It's important that you don't be too keen because if shes been your friend for a long time than she might be freaked out at first by her feelings for you. Just take things slowly with her.

I think that you should give him some time to think and get over the fact that he has broken up with his ex. He is most likely looking for a rebound and you don't want to end up in that category. You deserve his honesty and himself completely be there for him and see where it goes from there. Let things go with the flow.

however long he had been dating his ex (in months) divided by 4.
Honestly, there is no exact answer. I'd just spend more time with them and say it when you feel you should. Also when they've stopped mopping over their ex (could be one day, could be a year) only you can judge that.

Just tell him you are there for him...and that you enjoy spending time with him, so you are up for lunch, coffee, or just talking if he needs someone to talk to. That way it doesn't sound like a date - but if you spend time together, it will go in that direction.

A couple of weeks. I'd go out with them and have few chats with them, then drop it into the conversation.
Good Luck!
