Hello,
So this past weekend my girlfriend broke up with me for reasons that were mostly external. We talked about it and decided that it ment alot to both of us to remain friends. We spoke about perhaps developing a lovers/play partners/Friends who did things- something more casual than the lifetime relationship we had previously talked about and been forging.
I said that it would be an adjustment to get there but I would like to develop that but wanted to focus on friendship for at least the first two weeks so that I could have some time to cry and heal.
Dose anyone have any tips on transitioning relationship types and maintaining friendships after a break up? I do not have experience going from a more serious to more causual relationship type. From my understanding it is not a sure thing, but something we are both open to.
Advice? Tips?
