You don't have to be friends with him if you don't want to. No one can force you into anything. If you don't want to be his friend, just tell him that, and make him stay away from you. What you allow is what will continue.

TRUE THAT. Im fine ,forgiving, trying to help him we have kids togather I will always be a friend ,though it is hard at times,I wish him happiness,although hes been heart broken dumped by another its hard to emotionally nurse someone that did the same to me,but I cant help but feel bad for him wish i didn't.


LowRange,

I feel bad for you.

You are being drained by someone who didn't want your heart when he had it, but after his heart was hurt he camed to you for a bandaid.
yes and I like the way you put that,so true but i do allow it .

But I can't move on if he's still showin around..How can I accept the truth we're not in relationship anymore and he wanna just become a friend. He lost his love but not me. Isn't unfair?


there has to be clear boundaries,,,friends from a distance

its not fair if it interrupts your ability to move on,,,

Thanks! :)

Been there. When I told my ex that I didn't think that we should keep seeing each other she still showed up at my door again as if nothing had changed. After I snubbed her a few times she left me alone. Five years later I did make friends with her again and we talked about it. I guess that she didn't realise how much she had hurt me and how upsetting that it was to be around her after what had happened between us. She didn't believe that I did love her apparently. She told me that she was hurt that I didn't want to be friends anymore but I wanted more than that. Now we are friends again and we are both happy with it being that way. It was good to talk about the relationship but I just felt that I couldn't do that for all that time because it had always been on and off and talking about it just kept rekindling it and we kept going round and round in circles.

I don't speak to most of my ex's anymore. Only a certain one. But I think that's because he's the only one who ever listened to me properly. The rest I don't really give a hoot about, because they seemed less caring. We are like a double act, when we are in each others company. The more you can forgive and forget, the better, but still I know it's not that easy.
