So long story short, I had mutual feelings with a guy, he asked me out and then a few days later after I thought it through I told him that I wasn't comfortable hanging out without masks because covid was pretty bad where we are and I have high risk family members. He respected that but only wanted to be friends. We kind of lost touch, and we do see each other at school sometimes and we are friendly towards each other but don't really talk. Now things have changed where we are and we are both vaccinated. I never lost feelings for him and now I like him even more. I don't know how he feels so i'm thinking about reaching out and asking him.
How does something like this sound:
"Hey listen, I know we stopped talking but I've been thinking about things and I realize that I still have feelings for you. If you have moved on and you're in a new relationship, then I'm nothing but happy for you. I do feel like it was my fault that it didn't work out before, so that would be understandable. However if we were both vaccinated (I will be in a few weeks) I'd be happy to try this again, the way you originally wanted. So anyways...I just thought I should tell you in case you feel the same way. I wont be offended if you don't, and if you are in a new relationship I would understand if you dont even want to respond."
Am I making a huge mistake here or is this reasonable?
