I was just pondering... what if I was the 'boyfriend'?
Well, I would be completely behind you going for that drink with her. See, she must have already seen through my facade of niceness, and is starting to see the truth: we're not working out like she'd hoped.

If she goes out with you and you two hit it off, well, she'll do the hard work and give me the 'friends' talk, and I'm out scot-free!. Or, she'll go out with you, and realize she should be cleaning up a little more, cooking more spicey food, and generally treating me better 'cause you were a dud, thus driving up my value by comparison...so, really, it's a win/win.

I may sound a little flip, but as long as you two don't get into any touchy-feely with her while she's in a relationship, you're not doing wrong, in fact probably helping out, by testing the strength of the 'relationship'.

So, in conclusion: I say ask her for the drink in a week or two, and keep your damn meat hooks off of her! Oh, and also run the grape smuggler while swiming, just to keep her attention.
