<human>: Summarize the given text in a few sentences.

I just broke up with my girlfriend of around two months. The relationship ended due to her inability to communicate and how that effected both me and our relationship. It was a very emotional break up for her, and i don't think she wanted it to end at all. 

Now, as we were dating, I met one of her friends who i see at least once a week at trivia nights we go to. She is beautiful and fun to be around. I felt like we have had a slight connection and flirted a bit. Nothing over the top as I am loyal and would never cheat on a girlfriend. 

My ex is heading to a different town for the summer, and her friend is still living in the same city as me. I am not sure how the friend feels about the break up, or if she sees me differently than she did before.

I guess my main question is, in a couple of weeks time would it be appropriate to go after the friend? I figure it obviously wont make the ex happy, and the friend might just straight up shoot me down... But it's also like, what else do i have to lose? 

Does this make me a bad person for perusing the friend after the relationship is over? Any thoughts, feelings, or past experiences would be great.
