You cannot do it ( being just friends) because you still have strong feelings. Maybe, in time, you will able to be just friends but, not right now. You need to heal, regain your strength and, in time, maybe you will feel ready to be friends. Such a difficult thing to experience because you want this person to be a part of life still but, you know or can sense that in doing so, you will still feel hurt & heartache. This is completely normal. Do what you are most comfortable with. Your gut instinct is telling you that you cannot be " just friends " right now. So, if you happen to cross paths, it's ok to say hello but, limit the conversation to only " friendly" issues. I hope that this helps and GoodLuck !

You can be friends, i know from personal experience, but it takes time, you have to have the space to get past what you two had, and the pain of the heartache before you can think of being friends. But just because you can be friends after time you might decide that you don't want to....just because its what he wants doesn't mean you have to want it too. Just give yourself time, and your heart time to heal before you make that kind of decision...best of luck to you sweetie.

No way, don't torture yourself. maybe later you can be friends but not now. I had an ex who still called me everyday after he broke up with me. It made it really hard for me to move on so I had to tell him to stop calling.

i think its possible, but dont try and be best frends with him/ her straight away, they need time if they broke your heart then there was something wrong with the relationship give it time to heal..
you may both come out of it being better friends then before!
good luck..!

No, don't even try. You can't get over a broken heart if you see the guy all the time. Dump him.

You can be friends with him if you want to. If not then keep your distance and take some time off to yourself. I think you can be friend if you try.

that would be asking for more pain and misery. the odds are stacked against it and it is not sensible. be polite and avoid contact. only what is necessary, if at all. just good sense and life is too short to gamble against the odds.
