<human>: Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?

[Original post](

So I got alone with her and finally just went for it. I simply asked if she wanted to go out sometime. Unfortunately got a no. Apparently she is in a relationship and she said "I'm kinda seeing someone."

I wasn't really mad or sad at all. I was shocked because neither I nor any of our friends knew she was going out with anyone. I responded with, "Really?" and asked why she never brought him around. He lives like 2 hours away from what she told me. 

Anyways, it was a huge weight off my shoulders and I'm just happy to be done with it. I did text her the next day to apologize in some fashion. I really felt bad that I caught her off guard and just dropped this on her. I told her I just needed to know and that I thought I would give it a shot. She was fine with it and had no issue at all which was also nice to hear. I'm really happy I didn't screw up our friendship over it.
<bot>: Asked good friend out, got a no, she's "kinda seeing someone" which was news to everyone, relieved to still be cool with her"
