He broke up with his very long term girlfriend 2 years ago. Around the same time his mum died. He hasn't dated anyone since then. I recently saw him on Hinge so it looks like he's ready to start dating again but his profile says "figuring out my dating goals" when asked what he's looking for (the other options are short term, long term etc) which is dating speak for not ready for anything serious.
Should I make a move now? I've always had a crush on him. He actually asked me out before he met his ex but I was young and stupid and said no. We've been friends for many years. He's a really good guy and while other men post-breakup might just start shagging around I don't think he's like that and even if he starts dating casually I think it's likely he'll end up in something serious.
On the other hand, he might just be dipping his toe in and really not be ready for anything serious (while I am) and I could be setting myself up for heartache!
