However, we both kind of hang around the same group of friends so we have seen each other I believe 2 times during those 2-3 weeks. I also haven't talked to him since the break up and those 2 time seeing him we didnt talk either. So anyways, even those two times seeing him, everytime I feel like a 'softy' and miss him more after I see him. I really hope we can at least be good friends again but I dont know how to start talking to him again and have fun (we used to do somewhat a lot of sports together even before becoming gf/bf). Talking to him online would be the easiest, less awkward talking about it but at the same time it seems so silly. Or phone, or in person over drinks but im afraid that it would lead to an awkward conversation. Whats your say?

First of all, be very clear whether you want a friendship with him or not. I guess the best test of wanting to be his friend is, What would you feel if he got involved with a different girl? Friendship and love are different and you must know what you really want. Because of the short time since you broke up, my guess is that deep down you still love him.
If he won't talk to you, however, I don't think it's a good idea to try to talk to him at all. I'm afraid he would not respond and you'd end up embarrassed.
If the reason why you broke up still exists, talking to him won't do any good.
I think you should sort your own things out, and then talk to him in the real capacity you want to be. Let some more time go by, though.
Hope this helps.
