what you mention about it hard 2b friends when you are still in love with the person is very true… the care for the person can’t just diminish when you get to see the person all the time… the desire to have the person back will only get stronger & stronger each time you meet the person… a time off is a must for both parties… but how long it would be varies among individuals… till now, its still hard for me to just treat that someone as just a friend but i have no choice… that someone already found her another half… yet i’m still reluctant to screen myself from her… aiks…

What.. when it’s quite a long time ago you broke up with your ex.. and you want to become friends with him again..? because you guys have had some great time together and didn’t break up with hard feelings against each other. After the break up you broke off all the contacts because you knew from yourself it’s hard for you to let things and people go. But after a while you think about the great times you guys had and wonder how your ex is.. so you kind of wish you guys can become just friends.. but maybe that’s just not possible any more since you were the one who broke off all the contacts.. and it’s kind of stupid to suddenly send him a message again and ask him how he is.. isn’t it?

I agree with you angel. Its not easy to be friends with your ex soon after the break-up. In my case, I dint want to end the relationship but a series of unfortunate incidents lead to the breakup and i find it too hard to move on cuz i still have feelings for her. Everytime i talk to her those feelings only make it harder for me. So finally it came to a point that i had to screen myself from her.. mayb one day when i am over her feelings i might b in a position to be friends with her. But it is never goin to be easy considering once things were all perfect between us n suddenly it was all gone. Yes… it all depends on situations!

you guys are right, it all depends on the situation. for those of you who are friends with your exes, good for you! it always helps when you don’t have hard feelings for that person anymore. less emotional baggage, if you know what i mean.

@nice… i agree, if one lover (or both) is still holding on to the past, real friendship cannot be established.

thanks for your comments guys!

hi! love this post!

in some cases, it’s the other way around. it’s hard to remain friends with your ex when everytime you see each other and talk he insists on getting back with you, even though you know it’s not possible. too bad, but friendship can never be established while one is still holding on to the past.
