i just wanna say, i'm going through the same thing as you are, or were. stupidly, i went out with my best friend. we told each other we wouldn't change if we broke up. well.. we JUST broke up. & i can't help but feel like nothings ever gonna feel the same. & he still wants to be the old buddies we were. & i just can't & i feel horrible for that.

I honestly think that the best thing you can do for the both of you is explain that you need time apart. I truly believe that if my ex and I had taken a step back, had a clean break from one another, and given ourselves time to heal before trying to be friends, that we could have had a great friendship down the line.
Trying to pretend that everything is ok and things haven’t changed only leads to resentment and frustration in the long run…
Good luck and thanks for writing!!
