Today, a few months after my co-worker had stopped wearing her engagement ring, I decided to put on the moves and start flirting with her. I soon found out that her fiancé had died, and that she's nowhere near over him, despite her brave face. I feel like a total asshole. FML

Well then offer her comfort. Who knows? You may make her happy and things could build to a relationship. Just let her heal.

Now your next step should be just to comfort her. She needs it whether it looks like she does or not.

So make up for it. Be a friend, a shoulder, an ear, whatever she needs.

What matters is you regret it. Try comforting her now

It's not your fault, you didn't know. Some men take advantage of a vulnerable women and it's good that you weren't doing that.

there was no way you could have known that. just apologize and tell her you're there if she needs someone

I can't see how so many people voted YDI. If you waited an appropriate amount of time (ie a few months, which you said you did) and you didn't know what happened, how could this possibly be your fault?? FYL

You should say, "Hey, you should go out with me because I'm fun. Your fiancé is such a stiff."

I'm sorry perdix, this one just isn't as good as your other ones

You couldn't have known so don't beat yourself up over it! Just be a friend to her for now because she probably needs someone.

well you should of asked her about her ring lol

You kinda deserve it for flirting with her before even bothering to learn the most basic details about her.
