This is a pretty loaded story so please bear with me. So I was at a school dance this weekend and this girl I used to talk to just told me she broke up with her boyfriend cause he was an asshole, wouldn't let her do what she wants, etc. Last year we got to know each other very well and I'm pretty sure we really liked each other but her now ex-boyfriend made the move first and beat me to it, so whatever, I move on.

So during the dance you know I'm having fun dancing with other girls, doing my thing. Meanwhile, she keeps talking to my friends telling them how much she cared about me and how much she really didn't want to hurt me. But i honestly didn't want to just drop everything and start flirting/pursuing her again and get that far into it, so during it I can tell she keeps looking over and she starts to hookup with one of my friends. And again I'm just unfazed and just keep having fun. Until I see her later that night when she straight up apologizes to me about last year.

I had absolutely no idea what to say, so I was just like "about what?" and she gave me the look like "you know what" and then I got distracted and haven't talked since.

I am interested in her again but have no idea how to go about this and I don't want to make it seem like I've just been waiting around for her to just break up with her bf. And she did seem completely over him. Is she even interested again? Do I take it slow and kind of test the waters? If so, what are some examples I could text her or something? Honestly, any advice would help.
