After you have been broken up for a few years...
Had an intimate relationship with someone for 4 years. We''ve been broken up for 3 1/2.
I still would like to be friends, but nothing more.

Yes, it is. Just make sure both of yall understand that it is just friendship and nothing more. My x husband and I are the best friends in the world. Sometimes relationship doesn't work but why give up on that friendship that attracted yall to each other.

I was with my ex for 2 1/2 years and we have remained friends. We've been broken up for over 2 years now. We fought for the first year everytime we talked, then we finally made peace. So yeah, I guess it's possible.

Make sure that you really don't want anything more. Once you've done that, assess the guy's character. Would he try to get back in the relationship if you wanted to be friends? If so, invite him to dinner with about ten friends, or invite him to a party. If you find yourself wanting more, remind yourself that the relationship is over and gradually cut ties with him.

It is possible but it depends on both of you. I have continued to be friends with all of my ex boyfriends and my ex-husband. I think the reason this is possible is that neither person wanted that type of relationship anymore, but we still enjoyed our friendship. If either person is still hoping it will turn into something more the friendship will always be unbalanced and most likely unfulfilling for both involved. My huband is friends with all of his ex girlfriends except one. That is the one that wanted him back... and that made it impossible for them to be friends.

Yes, as long as you both agree not to get intimate again.

Yes, because you have feeling involved, let it go until you find someone else to put your feelings into

i believe you can still be friends with somebody after you have been with because one of my best friends is the guy and my boyfriend has became good friends with him too. but it also depends on how it ended
