Hi,

I think the best thing you can do is give him some space, maybe this new relationship is a rebound thing. Just make your ex aware that if he ever wants to talk etc; then you'll be there for him and leave it at that. People say absence makes the heart grow fonder so by not contacting him, may make him realise he wants you in his life. Either way all you can do is keep yourself busy/ have fun and if/when he decides he wants to be friends im sure he'll get in contact.

Good luck xx

If your ex doesn't think it will work i would accept this and try to move on otherwise he could feel pressured if you keep on at him and start to resent you. I realize it is easier said than done but if you respect his wishes in time he might realize that yous can be friend. Sometimes staying friends with people you care is like picking at a scab, you end up leaving a scar.
