Yes, you might be of the opinion that it depends on the circumstance of the breakup, but we don’t get what the hoopla is on this matter.
A writer tells us his story and gives us his opinion about this. Feel free to give us a differing opinion.
“I started dating a girl in my penultimate year in school. Our relationship was the Shakespearian kind as we made more promises than were present in all of Shakespeare’s books and we really meant to keep them. If at any point in reading this, you were thinking of someone, you are totally in love.
Her name was Wura, my soul mate, or so I thought. Everyone loved us; we loved us and were the envy of our schoolmates. All of this awesomeness blossomed each day until she graduated and was to go for her service year. I studied a 5-year course and had one more year to spend in school. As we transited into our long distance relationship, we promised to always be in contact and assured ourselves we wouldn’t even feel the separation, but life started happening fast.
In the first month, we still talked as though we were right beside each other. It was still magical, but it just wasn’t as it used to be. In the third month, it started to get really bad. We went weeks without a word, and when we did, the conversation was. By the sixth month, we would go for over 2 weeks and just randomly remembered we weren’t talking. In the eight month, it became totally normal, and we became high-and-bye friends. It was really painful but there was simply nothing I could do about the situation. And then the day I feared came. Wura sent me a long WhatsApp message, she had fallen in love with some other corps member and wanted us to move on as friends.
My first thoughts took me by surprise. Friends?? Why? What kind of friendship can we keep after you hurt me this way? Then I replied her, there was no way I could be friends with her, If I couldn’t have her then I’d rather not tag along as the ex who’s now just a friend. No. Not me, I can’t be just a friend. ”
What do you think? Can you simply be friends with your ex?
Yeah, it is always good to part away peacefully because non knows where to meet the other in the nearest future. It is always good to remain friends forever no matter thw circumstances.
