I wonder if I am being foolish. He is the one contacting me. I know he is offering friendship only and I have told him I need time. I love this man. I know I am growing and changing. I don't know how to just be friends with this man. It hurts that he is with someone else.Sharann Alterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02835756925735181231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4966428458553676904.post-88357176302843994452009-05-02T00:43:00.000-04:002009-05-02T00:43:00.000-04:00Thanks Dr Karen,<br />He has been dating someone else for a few months now. Is it best for me to cut contact and say I can't accept just friendship right now despite him contacting me? I still have feelings for him.<br />He was the cause of a lot of issues too. I don't know if anything has changed for him. If he is genuinely only offering friendship, I have to find a way to move on. If he is ready for a committed relationship, I am open to it. Perhaps I am a fool for feeling this way when he is seeing someone else. I do want him to be happy.<br />LisalisaSharann Alterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02835756925735181231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4966428458553676904.post-61017350819117714362009-04-30T22:58:00.000-04:002009-04-30T22:58:00.000-04:00Being truthful is always the way to go. Just don't attach an outcome to it. You both may need to grow more (or not) to be together in a healthy way. If you both are wanting contact, then that's great. Better to be honest and disappointed than to pretend.<br />Blessings,<br />Dr. KarenKaren Kan, MDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18419928999904766262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4966428458553676904.post-38955809194962195922009-04-30T20:37:00.000-04:002009-04-30T20:37:00.000-04:00Hi Dr Karen. I am in the same situation. 6 months out of a LTR and I have done a lot of thinking and looking at myself. I would like to manifest my ex back into my life and have a new, fulfilling relationship with him. I see how I was the cause of a lot of issues and I am working on them. <br /><br />I want to know how to approach my ex, what to say.<br /><br />Recently he contacted me wanting to talk about what we've both been going through. We do both miss each other.<br /><br />I am confused about the way forward. Do we talk about where we each went wrong in the past, do we keep things light hearted and friendly, do we tell each other how we really feel. <br /><br />LisalisaSharann Alterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02835756925735181231noreply@blogger.com
