We agreed to stay friends seeing as we were really good mates before we started going out and neither of us wanted to ruin that friendship. I was a bit upset to start with because I really liked him so I didn't really talk to anyone last Friday, including him, but I was much better on Monday and for the rest of the week and was talking to all my mates again btu he seemed to be ignoring me and not talking to me much, I tryed to make convisation but it didn't last long and we just ended up in akward silence and then one of us walkin away. Please help me, he is a great mate and I don't want to lose him as a friend. What should I do?

I'm friends with all of my exes, and that happened through giving it time and space to chill out and get rid of all those excess feelings. Trying to be friends too quickly just leads to unresolved feelings becoming unearthed, and that gets messy fast. You don't want to get hurt, sweetness, so I'd keep my distance and let the spark of a relationship/breakup subdue. After you've both chilled to a comfortable zone, you'll be able to be friends.
Good luck!!

well to start off as friendship which changes to releationships is hard to go back to being normal friendships.because ;-your both getting over the fact that you two have broken up-your getting used to being single again-you may be missing the old times and how it used to beits kind of like getting intoo a habit and then stopping. its hardit will be awkward, and to be honest, depending if you two become friends again it may always be awkward, but it depends on both of your effortits hard to pick things up and tru to forget about the past, so maybe you two need some space, or have a real deep conversation with him about how you feel, and what you do and dont want to happen .
