Several months ago, I ended a 10-year relationship. I still wanted to be friends, but we just weren't working as a couple anymore (for example, our sex was very few & far between, and we shared a bed!). However, my xbf was not so thrilled. He was so involved in himself that he didn't think there was a problem. Yeah, that WAS the problem. But, he reacted badly. He bade me take "every little thing" so he wouldn't have to face any memories, and told me not to contact him "for at least 6 months." I felt bad about it, but I moved 1000 miles away with my new bf and got on with my life.
But the other day, I got an email from the xbf. It was a little cautious, but he spoke almost as if nothing had happened. I answered in kind (pretending that we'd been best friends forever). Then today, he IM'd me and even told me about his new gf and asked me for advice. It made me feel really good, because when you're with someone for 10 years it is hard to suddenly not have him in your life anymore.
So now I feel all warm & fuzzy. It's a good feeling. I like when we are all friends.
ps - my 1st set goes live for MR in exactly one week!
