Its hard to let go of the past no matter how long it seems. I split (or rather got dumped) with my ex a few years ago, Im over it and everything but we were really close and it totally broke my heart. I hold no malice or bad feeling, as I know we were both still youngish and that she wanted more than I could give at that point in time.
We are still friends and see other some times, give birthday/christmas presents etc but I still miss her and tried to get back together – but it didnt work out even though I tried really hard – she just doesnt like me that way anymore.
You just gotta move on and accept it, but seeing her and being in contact is weird, I should try and move on and be less in contact with her without being bad about it.
I guess you cant really be friends like normal after being so close. I wish her the best. Time to move on and upwards :)
