<human>: So after several weeks of blushing around this cute barista [M28], I [F27] finally got the courage to ask him out. 

What finally gave me the courage was him preparing some tea for me (after I had bought some coffee) because I had casually mentioned my stomach was bothering me. He brought it over and it was such a sweet gesture that I thought, "Hey, if he's this caring now that I'm practically a stranger, things could only get better!"

I went back the next day and gave him my business card and asked him to call me. He said yes!! So now I'm going to see him later this week. 

As terrified as I was, I was tired of not being actively involved in my dating life. I've always let guys ask me out and that has never worked out for me. I've been single since January after getting out of a five year relationship and even though I'm still hurt by what happened and still sometimes think of him, I keep telling myself that I have to move on. So I'm going to take things VERY slow and see what happens.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: Been lurking on this subreddit and finally asked a guy out and he said yes. No more waiting for guys to do all the work!
