Why does is seem like all men have a former girlfriend in the their lives as a "best friend"? I find this ridiculous. How can a guy have such a close friendship with someone he's been in a relationship with and not have romantic feelings for her?
Yesterday, I received a Christmas card from the only ex of mine who still talks to me. She also invited me to her wedding. Coincidentally enough, that's the only relationship that I broke off, too. Well, I also broke off the relationship with JM, but she thinks she broke it off, and I'm not going to quibble about it....

I'm still friends with my first bf. We were 16 at the time. He's gone off to the air force and is now married. Now I'm friends with his wife on facebook and we talk every once in awhile. He hates it. I think it's hilarious....

No, you're not. It's not about simply being insecure.

I'm still friends with a lot of my exes, but it also involves not seeing or speaking to them for a number of months, or in some cases, years before we can be friends again. And even then it's not as close as it was. There are a select few that I am still that close with and that's usually because we were meant to be friends in the first place and not lovers so that transition was mutual and easy for both of us....
