Friends after break up?

I have been with my love for two and a half years now; we have had many problems because I never get to see him as much but we love each other so much.

Most of the time we talk about our stuff so distance brought us super close, now im thinking we could be great friends after we break up; I never wanna loose him idc if we are just end up being friends, he is like part of my life already more like a best friend.

do you guys think its possible two people can stay really good friends after breaking up?

First off, learn to spell…

Secondly, it’s never a good idea to remain friends after breaking up from a serious relationship unless children are involved. I am guessing children aren’t involved either. A friendship with an ex is a surefire way to never get a guy to want to date you seriously.

I think by your spelling you are either emotionally unstable or this is a fake post. you didn’t even say WHY you want to break up. I think it is possible to be friends, if you both want to.

Personally I recommend space for the both of you to give you time to get over eachother, as you claimed to have been ‘in love’. Then, I’m sure you could be friends.

I don’t think it’s a good idea to stay friends with your ex, it’s like you have never severed the umbilical cord. It will be difficult for you to move on and when he will be dating other girls, you will certainly be hurt.
