I think I need a woman's opinion on this one.

I had a big sloppy crush on this girl in highschool, nothing really panned out and I'm neither better or worse for it. A couple years ago I found out she had a tattoo parlor and I too kmy wife there for some ink and we caught up a little bit. Then shortly thereafter my wife left me and I found myself hanging out with her and her fiance a lot just to have people around. I started dating again and we grew apart once again,. Well just tonight she made it a point tomake sure I know that she was getting a divorce. I'm trying to analize what might resemble a proper course of action here but I'm drawing a blank. Should I just be there for her if she needs me because she was there for me during a similar situation? Perhaps I should be there for her while putting myself in a position that would make her want to persue me in a romantic way. I know she had a thing for me back in the day, and I'm wondering if she's trying to get ahold of me out of despiration, maybe a rebound? It's a part of the game that I'm simply unfamiliar with.
Thanks in advance for any help or insight.

Personally, I would say game her because you ARE more confident in yourself now and she will notice a difference in you.

It might not go anywhere . . . but then again it might as well. Just calibrate well because if you're overbearing you could burn a bridge. Of course, I don't know how close your friendship is with her right now, or if you're exactly worried about destroying that or not. I would game her playfully and let her see the more confident you. She will probably start getting attracted simply from that.

I'll also bring this to a woman's attention as well.

Thanks trip

What exactly are YOU looking for? A relationship? friendship? FWB?

Since she is just getting out of a marriage then she isn't going to be looking for anything serious. Maybe someone to fill the void, rebound, or a friends shoulder to lean on. Your course of action really depends on what you want from her. If you are pushing for a relationship right now then you might scare her off. At the same time she is probably going to want someone to talk to, which can put you in friend zone. Game her but definitely don't make her your primary focus.

I think you should be there for her but you must not get your hopes at very high levels. This is to make sure that you won't get disappointed in the end. But considering the situation, there is a very high probability that she'll consider being romantically attached to you in time.
