Staying Friends With Your Ex Girlfriend When You Still Love Her

By Anthony Malibu

She dumped you, but you’re still in love with her. So what’s next? Do you walk away and try to move on, or do you work toward getting your exgirlfriend back? Either one of those two choices is fine, but the one thing you simply cannot do: stay friends with your ex. Not only does the exgirlfriend friendship never work out, but it also destroys any chance you might have of ever getting back together again.

“I think we should break up, but I’d like to stay friends…”

It sounded so simple and easy when she said it. And of course, you immediately agreed. Staying friends with your ex girlfriend enables you to still talk to her, email her, text-message and even hang out together from time to time. Instead of losing her completely, you’re only losing the romantic aspects of your relationship. You were friends first, right? So why can’t you still be friends even after you break up?

Quite simply, friendship after breaking up is impossible. When you’re still in love with your exgirlfriend, friendship puts you in some very awkward situations. You’ll want to look for signs that your ex still loves and cares for you, but you’ll be weighing them against her just trying to be nice. In turn, she’s going to feel awkward around you because she knows you still have definite feelings. From here, there’s a lot of pretending. You’ll pretend to be such a great buddy who’s truly happy for her successes in life, but in reality you’ll be jealous that her life no longer includes you in it. She’ll pretend to care about your own situation, but she’ll gauging your every move and keeping you at arm’s length. Your ex girlfriend will also hide certain things from you if she senses they will upset you – something true friends would never have to do.

What will happen when your ex starts seeing a new guy? Can you really be happy for her, or will you feel like someone punched you in the stomach? In a clean break, you would never have to witness those things. But in staying friends with your ex girlfriend when you still love her, you get a front-row seat to her new social life. You’ll feel envious of every little thing she does without you, and when she begins seeing a new boyfriend it will feel as if your heart is being ripped out all over again.

Instead of trying to swindle your way back into her heart through a guise of friendship, why not trying more legitimate ways to get your ex girlfriend back? If you want to date her again, there are methods and techniques to draw out her more romantic feelings and emotions for you. Learning these methods can help put you on the path to creating an all new relationship with your ex, instead of pretending to be her friend. Only by being honest with yourself can you begin working toward a reconciliation… up until then, you’re going to push yourself deeper and deeper into the Friend Zone: a place that’s very difficult to climb your way out of.
