This situation just makes me sad. :(

[TranslucentThoughts]

So, I'm in my last semester of highschool right now. Hurrah! My ex and I have been broken up for about 5 months or so now. I had decided a little while back that I would just give up on trying to be friends with him because he really wasn't putting in any effort... and well... didn't seem all that interested in working on a good friendship between us at all. Sometimes he would be friendly with me at school... and some days not so friendly. It was frustrating.

 

Now though... the new semester has started and we have NO classes together... so, I hardly see him at all. It makes me really sad though... that now it's like we hardly know eachother when we were so close just months earlier. Everything just changed so fast. The breakup wasn't terrible... just a change of heart on his part really but I can't believe how different things are now and that he (for some reason which I'm not sure of...) couldn't even given a friendship between us a chance.

 

We're so distant now and all I can think about is what he thinks of me. Does he miss me at all? Does he ever think about me anymore? Does he not find it weird to walk past me in the halls without saying a word... as if we'd never even met before?

 

I think about this stuff. And not because I want him back or anything like that, because I don't. The situation just makes me sad. Highschool is ending soon and after this semester chances are I may never see him again. I cared about him so much and I still do... I don't want to graduate and not be able to say anything to him on that last day... I don't want to have memories of the last months between us being those of pretending the other person doesn't exist anymore and like we didn't have a great past together. We have no reason to ignore eachother... nothing horrible happened. It was sad, yes... but i never thought we'd end up acting like this.

 

Anyone else know how I feel? Or can offer some advice or anything...? Thanks for listening.

I'm in the opposite situation. My girlfriend was the one who left a few weeks ago, for the same reason you mentioned, non-ugly breakup and all that, and now she's not really that friendly towards me anymore. Even though she was the one who insisted we be friends.

 

As of yesterday I just gave up and resolved to not talked to her anymore. It's really a lame situation to try and be close friends with an ex anyway. Let your friends be your friends and your exes be...well... *poof* Exes.
