Guys,

I fell for the best friend and we had a kinda strange dating relationship for a few months. We decided to break up due to too much baggage related to our past relationships. Now there's the awkwardness. It's actually hard to establish a friendship or anything at all.

 

When would be a good time to say hello, hang out with other friends, and call and talk? I'm the girl, should I call first or do I wait? Should I just be honest about how awkward it is when we finally do talk? It's really sad because I feel like I lost my boyfriend and my best friend in one fell swoop.

Its hard to establish a friendship because one or maybe both of you clearly does not want a friendship.

 

If you want to date him again, either date him or let him go. DO NOT settle or stick around for friends hoping things will turn around. Trust me, they rarely do. I just spent the last 10 months in limbo land only for her to finally make up her mind about dating. Yep, she was 100% interested. Just not with me.

 

So get away if you cannot date. It is not healthy for you in the long run.

Thanks WT, it was clearly an issue of committment. He was afraid of it, I was all for it. HE told me that no matter what happened with our relaitonship he wanted to be sure that we would be "best friends" no matter what. Now I feel bad, softhearted towards him, I want to support this, but it's hard.
