I do not wish to be back in his arms but he was so much part of my life and with grown up children who could be proud of a good friendship between their parents. Is it wise to expect him to just be ex's as friends or will it come accross as if I want him back ? I do not, I do have a boyfriend! I would like a good friendship for our adult children to be proud of. We do send important messages to each other, but that is it. Can this happen? How?

Are you really wanting to be a friend for you or Just for the kids? I am doing the same thing and my outlook is we have shared 26 yrs together which is to long to let go of friendship so in my case I want to be his friend for the reason that we are still close even though not in love with each other there is still that friendship love .But in the other hand if you think you are doing it just for the kids dont even try it wont work!! You have to dig deep and make sure this is what you want..Myself and my ex have been apart for 2 yrs and we have decided to stay friends because we dont hate each other and have shard to many yrs together to just walk completely out of each others life and be nothing to each other .So just dig deep and see if this is what you want because just doing it for the kids will make you miserable ......
