I need a few tips, please & thank you :]

Okay. some of you may have read about my current issue that I posted on here. long story short, I had my first offical relationship this year; it lasted for eight months. we ended up breaking up right at the end of august. due to the fact that he wanted me to take things to the "next level" with him.

after we broke up, he started acting really cold. this was around September time. however, ever since the middle of October he has been slowly making conversation with me. normal conversation. no conversation about our past-relationship at all.

my question is, what do I do with that? I mean, I do miss our talks and stuff. I miss the way he was BEFORE we even dated. (meaning, that I miss him as a friend.)

is he really trying to be friends? or will problems occur again?

Infact i think you'd to be honest with yourself, that you regret that you guys broke up.
I think if he spoke with you a bit, it to tell you that he'd nothing against you, and he's not your enemy. You must know that because you two broke up, things won't be as before even if you became friends again. We all learn from our mistakes, so maybe this time, he will not make the same mistake.

I think he missed your friendship as you do. Most probable it's more than friendship. I think for both you and him, it's more than a friendship. If you really want to continued be friend with him, then i think without hesitation you could tell him your expectation, other than you both hides your heart feelings.

I don't regret we broke up, he didn't break up with me...or I didn't dump him. we both agreed that it was the best thing. I have known him for over eight years, simply because he was one of my brother's best friends. part of the reason I became so attracted to him. we have more history being friends, than being a couple.

compare eight months of dating to eight years of friendship. there is no question about which one had more impact on my life.

thanks so much for the advise though, hopefully a chance to talk to him about this comes up. like I said, he's been timid to talk to me. but when he does talk to me, at least it's not in his same coldness matter.

The last thing I want is for it to be awkward! lol. yeah I think I am just going to take it easy, and treat him in the same manner I did when we were just friends.

Yea...thats the best thing to do.
