Good thing about ex-es... you don't have to worry about them, right?
So.... my latest ex.... interesting relationship, lots of fighting, we thought that was normal, turns out we were holding onto each other because we were comfortable....
flash forward: i have been with an amazing guy for over a month, have fallen head over heels in love with him (and for the first time EVER have said "I love you" first).... yes, I am aware that is a new relationship that has yet to stand the test of time, but it is a test I can't wait to take with this guy :). Completely, blissfully happy.
My ex and I decided to try and 'be friends'.... We clearly have different defintions of that concept. He never approaches me (cyber or reality) to chat and catch up, let alone try to hang out. I have tried the past few times, simply because we went from him saying "you're my best friend in the whole world" to him saying nothing to me at all.... It hurts a bit, because he was the only person I could tell all of my feelings to for the longest time. I am over him; I just still feel a little anxiety of sorts in the same room with him, and I just want to get over that and actually be friends.
**When we do talk after I've approached him, he sometimes seems a little strained, but not all the time. It's a hot-cold thing, and it really bugs me.
tugboat: I gave it a shot.... sent him an email, told my perspective, and asked him to give me a full honest answer (because to be honest, I've tried talking about it to him before, and all I'd get is a "we're cool man").... which is his typical response when he's trying to act distant and tough.

If there was a way you could get him to open up to you to at least get his view of your relationship with each other, you might then move on. He may have a harder time adjusting to "friendship only." If so, just give him time & be there for him when he's ready to talk again,
