So i've been re-connecting with a lovely woman who I used to work with years ago, but I was too shy to say anything then (I was 18 and socially awkward compared to now where i'm 34 and.....less so) and we've been talking he and there.
I decided after a month to muster up the courage to ask her out on a date, what I got what a plethora of reasons why she didn't want too. She wants to work on herself after her last breakup and her priority is her daughter before she starts dating again, but then I got this gem at the end.
"I’d love to stay friends though"
Jesus, did I get a 1 way trip to the friendzone or should I just wait this out and still chat away
