After a romantic breakup, some women want to stay friends with their ex. To avoid misunderstandings and resentments, you need to behave correctly, then you will achieve your goal.
Instructions
Step 1
Be sure to follow what you say. If your relationship was smooth, the offer to part will be a great shock for the man. If, on the contrary, they were difficult, then any words can be accepted with hostility by the partner. So try to choose the right words. Start by saying that he is a wonderful person, gradually moving on to the topic of wanting to break up. If, after the conversation, you realize that you have not managed to maintain friendly relations with your ex, do not be discouraged. Do the right thing in the future, and you will see that time will put everything in its place.
Step 2
Wait a little. It is stupid to expect friendly warmth and openness from the person you left behind. But, nevertheless, if you are dear to him, platonic feelings will not go anywhere. Time just has to pass.
Step 3
Don't invade his personal space. Neither pursuit nor meetings, etc. will help you to become friends. Leave him for a while, try not to date him. He must get rid of fresh memories associated with you.
Step 4
Be in tune with yourself. Understand that you offered to leave, not because it was a whim or a whim. You have made a conscious decision that may benefit both of you. You don't have to blame yourself for anything. Be honest not only with others, but also with yourself.
Step 5
Make it clear to your ex that you value your friendship a lot. Briefly but clearly explain what will be best for both of you if your relationship goes from romantic to friendship. If you insist on this, perhaps he will understand everything, and you will be friends. If he does not want to have conversations with you and constantly avoids, leave him alone, maybe he just loves you very much, and any meeting with you hurts him. In addition, try not to catch his eye with your new boyfriend at first. This will only aggravate the situation.
