As you know, dear reader, I'm single. After a relationship that was slowly dissolving over the last several months, it ended a few weeks ago.
There's this guy at work who I think has been interested in me for awhile.. but he knew I was in a relationship. Now, that relationship is over and he asked me if I wanted to get together outside of work for a cup of coffee(for me it would be tea...coffee is BLECH!!)
I'm not ready to date yet, and I've told him this. But that isn't really a date though, right? That's something friends do all the time..
Bear with me, my lovely reader, I'm new at this sort of thing!!! I haven't been single since I was 19 or so.. almost five years of the two relationships back to back.
What do you think about this??

as long as you lay your cards on the table that it IS just as friends and not a date, and he is not to expect anything romantic any time soon....go.
After been there done that myself, I think that you are being realistic in regard to your own emotions. Going out for a cup of coffee or tea sounds like a nice way to get out of the house could be a good thing for you...

u had said that you aren't ready to date. and being he just asked u for coffee it's not a date. he wants to get to know u. do u want to get to know him? and if you do just start off as friends and if he really likes u then he would understand.
Nothing wrong with going out and having coffee (or tea in your case) as long as you make it very clear that it is just two friends getting together for a drink.
I think its fine to do that; its just coffee/tea. However, if the intent of his asking you out for coffee was just as a friend, why was this not done while you were in a relationship? Certainly there wouldn't have been anything wrong with it then. I suspect he likely is *hopeful* for something more (like a possible relationship) than two people going out for coffee
