Dear those with superior knowledge :).

I'm getting quite close to a good friend of mine. She's just broken up with her previous bf of 2 years and has taken it pretty rough.

However she's slowly getting over it. I really like her and enjoy every minute with her. I dont want to express my feelings just yet due to the recent break up.

So my question is, would it be wrong for me to tell her when she looks nice, or compliment her at all without giving too much away.

..thanks in advance :).

shandygirl agony auntoh... and if I may add... take her to places & events. The more occupied she is, the more she will pull through her breakup.

shandygirl agony auntYes! Compliment her. She needs to know.

If her BF is the one who initiated the breakup, then she needs all of the "Self-Esteeme" boosts that she can get! If you want, buy her little inexpensive gifts too. Like maybe a small stuffed animal, a flower, etc., "As a friend"

I think perhaps in time, she will come your way.

Moviefan agony auntNo its completely ok to do that just dont lay it on to thick and to often otherwise it will be ovius and it becomes anoying when a guy does it to much. I know a girl who hates a guy who is obssessed with her because he does it non stop. Its ok to say it when the context is right or she is feeling ugly etc. But dont just go poping out of the blue saying things.

And i dont know how long she has been seperate from her ex but when she seems ready to move on make your move then, but until then help her with her problems when she asks or offer. Tell her she can call when she is feeling bad, things like that. That way your on her good side and make your move when your time is right. I did this and got screwed over the last time but most of the time it works.

Good luck!
