My BF and I of 2.5 yrs broke up. No bitter feelings. We are both happier with ourselves. We live together, and are continuing to do so, even though we're not together anymore. Do you think this could work? We are co-habiting quite nicely, and are fairly good friends. I don't want to get my hopes up, but he never said no to trying to work things out. He never said yes either. What would you suggest?

If he didn't love you, you wouldn't be living together. The same thing happened to me and my boyfriend a two years ago. I even moved out for a little while.
Now we are together, and very happy. We are working things out.
Its worth it. We are even talking kids and marriage.
If you love eachother, give it another shot. Love is worth trying for.

If you both are indeed happier with yourselves, why would you want to get back together. He if has made no commitment to you as far as marriage I seriously doubt he will. Move on, hopefully having learned not to jump into a sexual relationship without marriage. As I just said in a last post, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?" Oh, and Baby, if he isn't getting it from you he's probably getting it somewhere. Get out of there! FAST

I suggest that one of you pack up your things and move out because while you are thinking that maybe you guys will get back together, you are going to be devastated when he brings his new girlfriend home. How long do you think this will work if you guys don't get back together? This situation will cause problems for your new b/f and his new g/f. You might want to talk to him about the possibility of you and him ever getting back together before your heart gets broken. Good luck.

You are assuming things.
The decision was made to live together as friends. Not sure what part of that makes you think that this gives your guys a chance to work things out
I would suggest that you live life as his friend. Stop obcessing over it. Get it. I have a feeling he has. You are robbing yourself of precious emotional and heart time.
If it happens it happens But it is less apt to happen if you are on the sidelines roothing for it. That could send him off away

Get out. Where could it possibly go from here? If the relationship did not last through boyfriend/girlfriend once why would it again? And it definitely would fail if it came to marriage. Besides, right now you are both "on the market" so how will you feel when he brings a date home and vice versa.

Either try to work it out or move out. If you decide to just remain friends, the time will come when one or the other of you wants to see someone else and maybe even bring that person home....there's just no way that can end good. Get out while your friendship is still intact.

you're asking a question you comprehend the answer to. To Obama we are the unwashed thousands - the vast majority at the instantaneous are not even attorneys. toddlers being fed a line even as he implements his version of Cloward and Piven. There are 2 communities to Obama, like toddlers, the line that eats the pablum of propaganda (Liberals) and the line that doesn't and could be destroyed by skill of the IRS (genuine Conservatives).

Well...either work it out now or move out. I think you've put yourself in a weird limbo. I don't think it's healthy to be in that situation. You can try moving out and being on your own to see what that's like. It may really help you gain a better perspective.

I'd still move out. What happens if one of you wants to bring someone home for the evening? Not the ideal situation.
