You can do nothing, not reach out and hope he does. But that’s being passive , (kind of lame IMO) and letting him be in control. Just ask. If there’s a rejection, you take some time to get over it and you’ll be fine. You’re a grown up. We face rejection and hurt everyday and brush it off. You got this.

How is sex less awkward than asking to hang out? Honestly, the sex is mutually beneficial. You’re overthinking it.
