Friends after a breakup?
Relationship Stress / by Luftwaffle

...See more My ex and I recently split after 3 and a half years, it was clean and more or less neutral, were going down different paths career wise and after being long distance for almost a year with no indication of when it will end, we decided it was for the best. She also mentioned that maybe in the future we could try again. Ive never been friends with an ex before, this is my first 'proper' relationship, Ive never had a break up like this, all of my previous breakups involved me getting blocked on pretty much everything, so I got all the closure I needed then and there. But all I feel now is uncertainty and hope, I still have feelings for her, I was willing to keep going. Were not on speaking terms, she wants time to figure herself out and I said I do to, she wants to work on herself and just experience single life. Its been 3ish weeks and it's sending my anxiety and depression into overdrive, I keep overthinking and overanalysing. Seeing the person I cherished for so long posting and talking to other people (especially guys) and not being able to do the same really hurts my heart. I've found myself stalking most social media's, I find things without context and hurt myself. Ive unfollowed her on Instagram and various other things, I just dont know how this friend thing is going to work? If I remove her on totally everything will it ruin my chances of ever reconnecting? Why do I have this hope?
