My ex and I broke up because of him being non-committal (1+ yr) and he keeps contacting me to stay friends. What do I do?

I understand that going through breakups, especially recent ones, can be tough and emotionally tiring. I cannot give you advice since I do not know either of you personally. But I would ask you to think of how your ex currently makes you feel, and the kind of boundaries (if any) you wish to place. How does his wish to remain friends make you feel? And are there any other alternatives that you can think of? I hope you can take time out to work through how you are feeling at this point of the break up, and what you seek from here on out. I hope it goes well and that you are in a safe and healthy space :))
