we are friends but it hurts

last night we talked and I thought that we should just stop all this cause it's so awkward and focus on ourselves first. I told him that we can be friends but nothing more than that. and he agreed. I don't know why I did that but I just think that we might need this. atleast we'll act kinda normal like we used to but there might be more awkwardness because of this decision. I don't know what I'm doing

do you think you wanted the friendship for comfort, or because you’re scared of fully letting go?

giving yourselves space to focus on you isn’t wrong. it might feel weird now, but boundaries can actually make reconnecting later feel safer. take it slow

i tried the “let’s just be friends” thing thinking it would help, but it only made the awkwardness worse at first. it’s confusing as hell

@SmileMore492 I think you should cut him off because you can't be friends with someone you used to be in love with
