Can I ask out a guy I once rejected?
I'm a 21 year old female. I rejected a guy about a month ago, not because I didn't like him (i really did like him), but because I had just started to date someone else, and didn't want to see 2 guys at the same time. I only hung out with the guy I rejected once, but we had a good time. Nothing physical happened. I wrote him a short, nice message apologizing and explaining why I couldn't see him anymore. Now this relationship is over, and I really want to get in touch with him again! I don't know if I should. Will he react badly since I rejected him? Is there a certain amount of time I have to wait?

There is no set amount of time, but be honest with yourself: There is really no way to do this that isn't a little bit rude.
So when you get in touch with him agian, eat a bit of humble pie.
You were trying to do the right thing last time, and that was respectable, but if you are interested in reconnecting with him rommantically, you are probably going to have to take it slow and prove yourself a bit first. Once burned, and all the jazz.
He is likely going to be miffed and caustious, and it possible his reaction might be even worse than that, so you'll have to decide if he worth taking the risk of getting a negative response.

Go for it. You did the right thing at the time by refusing to string along two guys at once. However, the relationship you chose didn't last. Fire off a short email saying hello, and apologizing again for not being able to see him again after you had such a good time, but you didn't want to lead him on or be deceptive. Then just let him know your relationship with this other person has come to an end and you find yourself thinking about what a nice time you two had together. Then just ask if he'd like to meet up for coffee or a drink sometime so you could apologize in person. Go ahead, you've nothing to lose.
