I know exactly what you mean. My ex-fiance and I went through a very clean break up, and vowed to be best friends still. Nowadays, we barely talk.

One could attribute it to going down separate paths; I got more involved in the nightlife, while she got a nice, clean boyfriend. However, I've been open- even eager- to the idea of being friends, but we never talk. It's kinda sad, actually.

Excuse my bluntness, but what the hell is that supposed to mean? Honestly

drjay, I would agree that it dosn't seem very necessary at all. If you're friends with someone, you're friends with them. I can understand that it might feel akward for her, however, especially since the breakup was mutual, it dosnt seem like theres any good reason for you two not to be friends. People work weird and handle things differently. Go figure..

Is there some sort of unwritten rule that says when someone dumps your friend, you can be friends with them but when said dumper starts seeing someone else, no more? Confused? You won't be, after this episode of...Soap.

* As many of you knew, I broke up with my girlfriend of three and a half years (!) in March. First of the month, actually. It was pretty much mutual, but she really had her hopes up on moving in together and going through the legal formalities, nahmeanyahear (which I knew was a bad idea, and it turns out that since then, two people I know who lived with their SO's moved out and broke up with them, so... I was right. )
* I was friends with a bunch of her friends, and there was one who was particularly cool. Basically like some of yinz when it comes ot the video-game fandom and such.
* Well, last Wednesday, I go see the Dropkick Murphys (yaaaaay) with someone else. Things go well, and I learn from her post on the evening that she wished she kissed me goodbye (!). Which is funny, because I wanted to kiss her too.
* So plans are made for Sunday. In summary, when I get home much later that night, I go onto wherever would ask about your relationship status and change it from "Single" to... well, you get the idea.
* Yesterday, the friend from Bullet Point #2 notices that and, conflicted between being friends with me and with my ex (who she's known for much longer), decides she has to drop me from wherever she'd be connected with me. (I'm guessing she isn't losing my number, though.)

Was that last step REALLY necessary? Or would you have problems being friends with someone who did that (dated your friend, broke up with them, and eventually started seeing someone else)?
