<human>: A few months ago, I met a girl of off okcupid. The first few matches I had were a disaster, so I got really excited at how cute/awesome she was. Consequently, I went a little overboard and started throwing around terms like boyfirend/girlfriend after likfe 4-5 dates. Frankly it makes my head hurt at how stupid and clingly that was. 

This was back in May. I've had no contact with her since then, deactivated my OKC account and deleted her # (not out of spite, I just took a break from online dating). Recently though she popped up on Tinder which put two thoughts in my head 1) how awesome she was 2) how much of a clingy idiot I was.

I want to get in touch with her, start back from square one, maybe just be friends but is there a way of doing that without it looking like I was just lying in wait like a creep? Her OkCupid account is still active and I have her number from our OKC messages (I recently activated mine). Should I message her through OKC or text her like her # was still in my phone?

That being said, is any of this worth it? I know that's subjective, but can anyone speak from past experience with something like this?

Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?
<bot>: I went a little crazy throwing around terms like boyfriend/girlfriend WAAAY too soon and scared her off. The girl is awesome and still around how to I re-establish contact without being creepy? Is it even worth it?
