writes: Hello everyone now recently me and my gf split and are now pursuing a friendship. Yet we still argue like we're a couple. She recently got mad because of a joke, when she thought I was serious. But I was not. I don't want her completely out of my life. How can I show her I'm telling the truth? How can we continue our friendship even though I'm still madly in love with her? Reply to this Question Share |

You can't, and that's the problem here. The exact same feelings are there as when you were together. Therefore, the exact same problems will be there as well. Unless you take the step to move on from her and effectively cut her out, you'll just wind up having the same issues for years. And believe me, I know all about that.
The easier, safer option for you if you're still in love with her is to cut contact to a minimum (preferably none) so you can move on from her. Because until you have moved on, there is no way you can have a friendship that doesn't consist of the same arguments and problems you had as a couple.

First of all, I know what you mean. But your only 16-17 this is probably your first serious relationship, right? Its ok to feel this way after your first real breakup
Second, who broke up with who? And also telling her how u feel about the breakup may help. But once again at this age I would really advise u just to move on. Plenty of fish in the sea right?
