Me and my ex decided to break up. we broke up bc we felt like we had nothing in common, barely saw each other, rushed and went too fast. it was mutual. i need advice, it is possible that if we build a good friendship that maybe we'll work it out? he said "I want to go back to being friends, don't think of it as breaking up, think of it as meeting again on the same playing field but not going as fast this time" and "I know but I feel like I moved in too quickly like we barely even know each other I feel that going back to being friends is beneficial, especially for like space and boundaries and stuff like that". i agreed and said, "I agree with you, we moved too fast but that doesn’t mean I wanna go all the way back to the beginning because I know if we started as friends again, it just won’t be the same". I think that if we heal by ourselves but remain friends and build a good friendship, maybe in future we'll have a good, happy and healthier relationship. Advice?

Imo only diff b/w friendship and relationship is sexual stuff and exclusivity.
The list you mentioned will still affect friendship. I feel like if you stay friends- due to the list (nothing in common, barely see each other) will make ur friendship weak. If someone else comes into the life of either of you with common interest- you might lose interest in him.
ReplyIdk I tried that with Emily and I was stupid and just wanted more all the time. I guess it just wasn't meant to be. Idk why cuz I think about her all the time and miss her. We cut ties last year. It really sucks. I wonder if I ever even cross her mind like ever. :( my advice would be to make sure that you both take care of yourselves like mentally so that there won't be underlying issues.
ReplyA guy and I were friends for years and then we decided to get together and it didn't work so we went back to being friends again and it was the same for years until he called me and said he couldn't get a hard on. I told him to tell a doctor or to take viagra. Then my daughter and I were visiting him one time when he had moved near a beach and he invited us to stay the night on Christmas eve. I asked where we would sleep and he said on a fold up bed and the lounge which was okay with me. But a couple of hours later he said if we stayed I had to sleep with him so I said we wouldn't be coming. He became more and more sleazy as time went on until I didn't have anything to do with him any more. The last I heard of him he had died of a heart attack. He thought that because we had that fling years before I would let him use me for sex which I wouldn't and I didn't like him that way.
ReplyBro These comments rn. Being different is good. if they are the same as you it's like handling yourself. most people can't stand there selves. Being friends is what makes a relationship stronger. no matter how far or how close. if you barley see each make time. Don't give up if you think something can turn out good. I say be his friend, and build the bond. Good luck tho.
