DO NOT STAY FRIENDS WITH HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been twice the victim of this "but I don't want to lose you as a friend" act. It was so great for them to keep having me next to them as a "friend". All their problems were dumped on me, when seeking advice they again came to me.....but during the night times....I was the one alone in my bed. Who gained from this "friendship"?
I'm telling you, this "friendship" is the sickest, most twisted and toxic game you can play. He let you go didn't he??? Now he has to let you go! Disconnect!!!! And you'll see that the healing time will be shorter and stop hoping for a getting together!!!!! Did that as well!!!! Guess what??? It ain't happenin!!! RUN AS FAR AS YOU CAN FROM THE PRICK!
