Of all my ex girlfriends, I think there is only one where I found that I couldn't remain friends with. Not because it wasn't an amicable breakup, it was just too hard at that point to remain friends for me. You're probably asking why I regard that as amicable, but we agreed that this was best, but also that four years down the line we started talking again. And now, her and I can now talk to each other properly without hard feelings getting in the way. Fast forward to today... I just recently broke off my six year long relationship. You talk about finding that one solution, but I was tired of being the only one apologising and compromising. And regarding advice given by others. I'm always one that gives advice, maybe when not needed - probably more than I realise. Being on the receiving end of that now, and seeing how everyone is so full of advice, I can't stand it. Every single person that hears the sordid tale has so much "advice" to give. I think I've been more frustrated with the advice sessions, than with what actually happened / is happening. So... within reason, please give your advice, but know that you're not the only one giving advice... just enough to get a point across, no more please. Nice post :) I’m writing the below with limited time to edit, so apologies if its just thoughts spewed onto the page.

You will always have some form of hope in a relationship that you never wanted to end. And now this is something else just saying that it is over, that you are not together anymore, DEAL! We'll see how it goes. Not quite sure how to deal the relationship we have now. We fought to keep the friendship alive after all that time, so it would be silly to cut the ties now. I think I'll just give it a while... I mean time heals all wounds right? *choke*.... This is exactly right. You will always have some form of hope in a relationship that you never wanted to end.

People can't even take their very own (good) advice. Don't get me started on the generic answers. I have been bombarded with the cliches and have almost gone postal because of them. I do find advice from others helpful though, but i tend to sift through all the advice that doesn't fit the situation as *i* know it and apply what's relevant.

The breakup was very amicable and we still chat to this day. Even my current fiance takes an interest in her life and love interests because, well she's a nice person. Sometimes things work out and sometimes they don't. In my case it was for the better that it didn't because I meant my wonderful current partner - still that's no reason to rub out your past. Seriously. I don't get these people who are unable to remain on friendly terms with their exes. ('exes'? There has to be a better/correct spelling for this, right?) Anyway, just my two cents' worth! :) My ex and I broke up after more than three years of dating after she cheated on me. The breakup was very amicable and we still chat to this day.

Either that, or break contact completely. clean cut. and let her carry on with her life, and you carry on with yours. time heals all wounds? no it doesn't. it merely allows them to grow scabs and fester. stick a plaster over, and hope like hell it goes away. and seriously. someone she met while dating you? that's kak. the important thing to remember is - if something's not working for you, stop it. and that's the advice i give, that i can't seem to take myself. so you're right - it is easier to give advice, than it is to take it. wow.

i had no idea people actually listened to the crap i spew onto my blog.

it’s kak that she has a new bf, and that it’s someone you knew. kak for sure.

in the frame of mind i’m in – i’d say get revenge.

fuck friendship (do you really need *another* friend anyway?) and do something that will hurt her. sleep with one of her friends. her mom. anyone.

Either that, or break contact completely. clean cut. and let her carry on with her life, and you carry on with yours.

time heals all wounds? no it doesn’t. it merely allows them to grow scabs and fester. stick a plaster over, and hope like hell it goes away.

and seriously. someone she met while dating you? that’s kak.

the important thing to remember is – if something’s not working for you, stop it. and that’s the advice i give, that i can’t seem to take myself.

so you’re right – it is easier to give advice, than it is to take it.
