Hi, I am Sherry, 23 years old. I read the 5 steps plan and relationship rewind but I am still very confused about what to do with my current situation.
My ex boyfriend(20 years old) and I brok up on 11/11/2015. This is our second breakup. We have been together for 2 years in total. We discussed the reasons of our breakup honestly. One week after our breakup, I called to apologise to him and he said he forgave me and was no longer angry with me. However he never apologise for what he did wrong. Two weeks after our breakup, he told me that he still had feelings for me and he still loved me and missed me but the safest way was to be friends as if we got back together in a short time the same problems would happen again. I told him that I agreed and I respected that.
He and I both are able to talk about feelings( positive and negative ones) to each other and show our understandings for each other. We sometimes talk. We can have normal and short conversation. It looks like we develop a false friendship but I am not sure. We haven’t applied the 30 days no contact rules yet.
I want him back and want to keep him forever! I am not acting needy and he “like” my posts everyday and he knows I have great time with my girlfriends. If I don’t talk to him within two days, he will text me.
In my situation, should I just keep talking to him like a friend or should I apply no contact rules? Please help me! Thank you!
