Windy said she and theJersey Shorestar, 35, still talk “all the time.”

“He was like, sliding into my DMs the other day and I’m like, we’re past that,” theBacheloretteseason 19 co-lead said. “I’m like, ‘Are you flirting with me?’ And he’s like, ‘Um, yeah. Now I’m nervous.’ And I was like, ‘Just tell me you like me.’ And he was like, ‘I like you.'”

The reality star cited Guadagnino’s busy schedule and the fact the he doesn’t like Los Angeles, where she currently lives, as reasons why they haven’t gotten together.

“I’m always trying to get him out,” Windey shared. “I’m like, never say never.”

Windey had Bristowe’s support after sharing the news. “I’m rooting for this!” she told Windey.

The nurse — whobroke up with herBachelorettefinal pick, fiancéErich Schwer, in November — said that, at the very least, she considers Guadagnino a great friend.

“He’s like, a friend too, first, which is something that I just really want,” Windey said. “We were gossiping and sending voice memos the other day and like, this is fun!”
