Q: So my best friend just broke up with his girlfriend a week ago. There was no relationship there, and it was obvious they've both wanted to break it off for weeks because there was just... Nothing. I like him, and it's obvious he likes me, but it's so soon after his break up even though there wasn't really a relationship for weeks, and I just don't really know what to do... I think it'd just look bad this soon after the break up if we started dating.

Okay, so modified, I think you need to give him some time because even if he wasn’t fully invested in the relationship, obviously in the beginning there were at least some feelings. Then proceed, perhaps talk to him more about it and see how he feels about everything
