writes: I recently broke up with my boyfriend of 6 months. He said he cared about me and loved me but he wasn't in love with me. I had already told him that I love him. It's been 2 weeks and in that time he has sent me text messages acting like we're best friends and were never anything more. Do you think he misses me and is starting to think he made a mistake or is he just being insensitive and doesn't realize that I need more time to get over him before we can be friends? Should I say something to him? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

No, I don't think he realized he made a mistake. He regarded you as a friend (and this not IN love with you) and he still does.
Cut the contact, because you are wasting your time hoping he will change his mind.

You broke up with him because he didn't love you as you loved him. Nothing you have posted here suggests that has changed.
I'd cut off contact with him until you know what YOU need.
It's a noble goal, to be friends with your ex, I think about 20 or 30 years is the ideal time to contemplate it.
"Dear short-term ex boyfriend. I need more time before we can go back to being 'friends.' I will contact you when that is a possibility. Beyond that, don't message me, it just confuses the issue."
