<human>: Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?

There was fault on both sides. 

She has somewhat severe anxiety and depression, she ended up cutting off all ties except for me. It started to be too much pressure on me- I was unable to get any space. She wouldn't leave the house unless for work or school, and her not wanting to go anywhere with me definitely took a lot of fun out of the relationship. 

I was not willing to communicate enough, I should've been more upfront about the things that were bothering me. I shied away from confrontation because it always made her incredibly uncomfortable, but I know now that's just what it takes to have a healthy understanding. I should have not imposed my own lifestyle on her, we have different outlets and that's okay. Not wanting to constantly go on a walk or go to the mall should not be a big deal, I should've compromised more. 

I think we've both improved ourselves over the last half year- she has a lot of friends and is involved in activities on campus. I ever hear she's been on a few dates. I have spent time expressing myself (poetry, short stories, more open communication with myself and my friends,) and realizing no one is perfect. Especially not myself. 

Downside is that my friends are not super keen on the idea, which I think makes sense. It will be disappointing to them but I don't care.

I want to approach her soon, ask if she wants to talk, and tell her how I feel. I see her face all the time in crowds when it isn't there, I miss all her little quirks, and I think both of us are in a better place to appreciate each other. 

I know she might just say no, she is doing very well for herself, but I want to try. 

Any thoughts? Ideas? Advice? I'm pretty sure I'm going to do this. I will take advice to the contrary seriously, but I am hoping to hear ideas on how to go about doing this.
<bot>: I think my ex and I have worked on each other enough to pursue the idea of being in a relationship again. I want to talk to her about it, looking for advice.
