Bweets and Bove: even if the person wasn’t mean-spirited, I still think that it’s harder for some to simply “be friends again”. But good to know that there are people who can.

i think it takes time to be friends with ex-es again. its definately not an overnight thing. you need to give it some time cause when there is a change, people need time to get use to the new change. when you are use to the new change, its nice to know you have 1 more friend =)
p.s. provided if he/she is not a bastard/bitch who did something evil to you before

girlstar7: I think I am capable of throwing everything out except old photographs from my childhood and of my family. Those are priceless.

Reading these posts I certainly am in the minority, staying good friends with an ex. I think exes can remain friends but only in particular circumstances (I mean, if someone cheated on you it might be hard to remain friends afterwards).
And, yes, Mooiness, you’re right I am very sentimental although from meeting me you wouldn’t pick me as the type. I love nothing more than looking through old photos and remembering the good times. I have a jumper I got from my Grandma (who died this year) on my 13th b’day which is too small and completely ragged but I refuse to throw it out. It was my favourite jumper all through my teens, the oldest item in my cupboard and I still love it! It will have it’s tenth b’day early next year

Michelle: yes agree with your last line, it’s not something where you can just turn down the notch.

ian: and I think that’s more common than you think, unless you share a long history with the person like girlstar7′s story above.

Ah… I’m behaving somewhere in the same line of thought as you do too. I think being friends is just awkward most of the times and I know I’d never feel comfortable with an ex ever again as before…

exactly what i think. there is no point keeping the physical mementoes, unless of cos there is a chance of getting back together.
there is no such thing as a “good” break up, if 2 people can be friends and only friends, then in the first place, both parties would not have gone beyond friendship.

there are just too many factors involed in being a couple that friendship cannot accomodate.
