I know this has come up a few times, but let me explain my story...

My ex and i have decided to try and be friends, we have tried before but he was always texting one of my friends and i got arsey about it because i was paranoid about him getting in with her, which he assures me he doesnt want to and now doesnt even speak to her so were trying again..

He was my first proper relationship and i loved him in a big way, we split up nearly 2 years ago now and he has dated other people since and i havent, as it hasnt ever felt right, now i still feel something towards him and im not sure what ?! my friends tell me its because i just havent found anyone else to love and when i do i will forget about my ex, do you think we can be friends or will my feelings get in the way or will they eventually burn out ?!

We both agree we are like soul mates but we were young when we dated and used to spend way to much time together which is why it all went tits up..im just kinda scared that after 2 years im still hung up on him..haha

He isnt made of chocolate or anything Rolling Eyes so not that special lol

from my experience the feelings always get in the way of being firends, Everytime you start having a good laugh with them it reminds you of all the good times and you completely forget about why you split up, Then the reasons surface n you get hurt all over again. Or you think something can happen n it doesnt n voila hurt again. Best way to be friends is if you are seeing someone else as all the feelings are ignored as you have them for someone else.

Its round in round abouts. It all depends on the mood. One day you could feel so happy and the next the past could start to eat at you. You need to what is best for yourself, if you think about bad things in a relationship then speak about it.

i have some friends that are ex's of mine sometimes i think wow it would be nice to be back with them but on the other hand just remember if you stay friends there is a reason why he is an ex in the first place that is my only advice.... Always remember he is an ex for a reason

dont sleep with him, if u dont love him anymore then its either lust, or the typical case of wanting what u cant have. either concentrate on being friends with him or cut off all strings and stay away. (only do this is u thik ur going 2 try get him in bed though). if u do sleep with him u'll degrade urself and never get over him, best to quit while ur ahead.
