There was this girl who I knew last semester in college through class. We became pretty good friends, however, when I asked her out towards the end of the semester, she said no. Now it's the next semester and we haven't kept in touch since. I still kind of want to reach out to her and grab lunch with her just as friends, since I'm pretty much over her now. How should I do it so that it wouldn't be too awkward?

When you asked her out, did she mean "no, never" or just "I'm busy that evening".

Why not just text her and say "Haven't seen you in a while, wanna catch up over lunch?" Its only awkward if you make it awkward.

She wasn't interested at all.

I would forget about her and move on. She wasn't interested then; she's not interested now.

This.

She's likely to see your offer as another attempt. I do think it's pretty neat that you actually think she'd respond positively to your innocent and casually-offered lunch.

Thumbs up!

Yeah, sarcasm aside, don't waste your time.

This. You are only fooling yourself when you say you think you are over her. You aren't.

Except I'm not fooling myself because I like someone else right now? Maybe I should explicitly state I'm not asking her out if I message her asking her for lunch

Not romantically, but that's not what I'm after this time.
