writes: Ok so I'm having a little trouble getting over my breakup but I already know that I'm a strong person who wants to continue with life because it existed before the relationship and sure will after.The problem is losing a friend. I became best friends with him, he was my go to guy. Told him a lot, and he confided in me. Throughout the whole relationship we were always friends first. I feel that I've lost that now.When we broke up initially, he kept in touch... everyday. He'd call, ask me out to dinner all sorts. We'd laugh, but then I realised I wasnt ready and so broke it off.I've had some time and told him that I was ok with a little bit of contact, but now I dont think he's so responsive. I feel we've lost each other, and I've never really lost a friend before so it actually hurts worse.What happened? Being friends with me first was his priority throughout and after the relationship. Is it true ex's can never be friends?

It's generally true that ex's can't remain friends. I think he's now trying to move on, and I think you need to do the same. You are going to lose him. I not now, in the future when he gets another girlfriend. So might just as well be now. Time to move on.
