Brother J :
If you do wish to be friends. You need to take time apart to heal and move on. After enough time revisit it. At least that would be my advice.

I have feeling this is more avoidant thing - I’m anxious and when I’m done I’m done. All my avoidant exs wanted to stay friends…

My ex and I are still friends because we agreed the relationship was a bad idea. So we just went back to how things were and joke about our relationship

I wanted to friends but couldn’t do it. Standing on the side line while he was talking or with someone else hurt a lot more.

We mutually agreed to remain friends, and honestly it was the best for both of us. We love each other, I wish him the best, but he wasn’t for me.

It’s a bit harder if you have kids together. You can’t just walk away and you need to be amicable for the kids. Best staying friends in this situation so the kids don’t see their parents hating eachot

Yes. Staying friends can keep you in the Hope stage, and that can stop you getting over them. Its hard, but letting them go is best for you in the long run.

That's true. Plus the one who said let's be friends after a break up might be a narcissist who wants to still have some control over their victim

Honestly me and ex stayed that way - an ex. It was tough but better because out of sight out of mind. that doesn't mean you dislike them and you still wish them the best.

I used it as an opportunity to face and process my emotions because it was *incredibly* emotionally intense. Also aimed to be a good model for her since she struggled with processing emotions herself

Ended a relationship on a Tuesday and he still wanted to be friends and asked if we could still due our weekly trivia nights. It was a bad idea for me to do.

I’m in the thick of it. I had a friend to become something more and then it just as quickly ended. We tried being friends again, but I realized I was just gonna get hurt more and went no contact.
