Case of the Ex
Alright so recently (very recently) an ex of mine...alright that's not fair to say, because he was "the" ex, the first guy I ever really loved and the one I used to measure everyone else against, and I reconnected via Myspace. When I say reconnect it's only as friends...you know we message each other sometimes just to see how things are going and all that safe stuff. But it really made me think...can you ever truly be friends with an ex that you were once in love with?

I would say that ex and I are...sort of...safe friends.
Once in awhile he'll bring something up, and it's more annoying to me than anything else. I don't want to talk about the relationship we had. It won't come back, you know?
My case may or may not be different. There is always that lingering feeling with certain people. However, I am...ridiculously devoted to the person I am with now. Which is why it annoys me so greatly when the ex sort of tries to hint that he and I should have something again "when the time is right."
No. We shouldn't.
I think for relationships that were THAT strong to go back to just a friendship it has to take a neutrality from both parties, because are you really friends if you're walking on eggshells?
@Kataracts - Agreed. I feel the same way...I think you can be friends, but only if you know for sure that what was is never going to be again!
