Friends Afterwards
| Tue, 09-14-2004 - 7:09pm |
An ex boyfriend breaks up with you, and you tell him that you don't believe in remaining friends with exes... So they know that, but they will contact you every now and then and make small talk. To be polite, I may respond vaguely, and that's it. But over time, if they write, I will just ignore him. But still, more time passes, and he still tries to contact and acts as if we are good friends and tells me vaguely what is going on with him and then asks what's new with me? Why do males do this? They made their choice to end the romantic relationship, so then I make the choice to end any form of platonic friendship, yet they still talk to me as if everything is cool? Do they sincerely want to be friends? I see no purpose in it all. Maybe THEY can be platonic friends, but I find it difficult. I'm guessing it's just boredom on their part.

Who knows why men (or women for that matter) do anything! If you really don't want him contacting you anymore be firm and clear about it. The last person I broke up with would have liked to keep in touch with me, but I was so broken up about our breakup that I told him no in no uncertain terms. Some people do remain friends afterwards, but only after the healing has been complete.
