writes:My ex and i broke up a little while ago, and we stayed friends.He left me because he didn't want to be in a relationship right now, since he had just got out of a long term relationship not too long ago. He says i'm an amazing girl, and I deserve the best. He has always respected me, and I was very sad when he left. He told me that he had a friend I could get to know, that I could hangout with, since he knows that i don't like to be alone. I am not very comfortable, but at the same time I feel like i should move on, plus his friend and I could just be friends.P.S. They're not really friends, but coworkers. And my ex is not trying to pass me around, he just doesn't want me to feel bad.

Get out there and increase your friendship groups yourself, it will be better for your self esteem in the long term. I think your ex is making an excuse about not wanting a relationship, if it feels right people don't walk away.
He seems to be trying to extract himself from you by giving you someone else to focus on, that's not a comfortable thought, so better still to move on and make your own decisions about who you want to give your time to. stay friends with him but enjoy life more for yourself not the benefit of others.
