Yeah I'm just confused by his actions and I do get the sense they try and do it to keep us as a fallback incase they can't meet anyone else, which is selfish. I know he's not happy I can't stay friends and he knows he has hurt me but he can't offer anymore so it's a safer option, he's not friends with his previous ex but I think she hurt him, so I do think you are right that it is also done out of guilt. Thank you for giving me some insight. €

Depends rly on how relationship started and ended,for example the scorp girl i dated was my childhood friend,and when we turned 16we became a couple for a year,then we parted ways and didn't stay as friends,but now after this long time,we meet because we have similar friends and we can hangout like friends with all these similar friends including her,wouldn't want to be only 2 of us tho,would feel akward and weird,wouldn't want her to think that she has a chance to be with me while she rly doesn't ,other than that i don't rly feel like she's a true friend like she used to be,i could trust her and talk to her freely,get honesty and everythin in it while now i just like to spend time with our friends and thats it basicly,idk how you call it,but i don't think it's friends,don't know how to call it,if not similar friends i wouldn't be around her neither would she 🙂 why be friends with ex's i don't understand,ofc we like to take past with us,but only in our heads and hearts,not in real life,moving on ,we have real good memories when it comes to emotions,so all people who made us happy,or made us feel sad,we will always remember them no mater how much times passes 🙂 everyone is different tho,it's not always all about the sign 🙂
