Novel & Cerita Being Friends With An Ex Who Hurt You

I said as we walked away, choosing a bench, instead of a ride, "I'm really glad you called me," he said after some time, and I turned to look at him, "I'm really glad I called you too. I feel like I've been a terrible friend lately." "not a terrible one. Just a busy one." he said, and shrugged, "I can understand busy." "But, can you perhaps, not understand, rekindling a friendship with the man that hurt me?" I asked, watching his every move, and watched how his concern showed through his calm expression

“I forgive you, Jace.” “You do?” He says, eyes full of hope. “I do. I don’t want to hold on to that anger. But, the whole “friends” thing…I don’t know. I mean, you know it can’t ever be like it was before. And things are a bit…complicated in my life right now,” I cringe at what Kane would say about me being friends with my ex and in no world does that conversation go well. “Complicated how? You said everything was going well at school. I don’t see what’s complicated. Unless…there’s someone else?”

I can’t stand the sight of him looking this way. “Hey, I forgive you.” Those three words were everything. “I forgive you with all my heart. I would rather lose a leg than lose our friendship. What happened in the past is over and long gone. I’m here, I’m alive, and this is a second chance for us. We may not ever be in a relationship again but I would be happier if we stayed friends. Things may not be the same, but it’s okay. When I came out of my coma, I felt like my whole life was turned upside down and most of it was because of the way you treated me.”

Winced. She let loose a low whistle. "Wow. I'm not sure that comparing yourself to my ex is something you really want to do. That's a really low bar of measure." She tapped a finger to her lower lip. "How about this? When you figure out how to be a good friend, come back and find me?" What the fuck? She wanted me to be her friend before I could fuck her? That's ridiculous. Men and women couldn't be friends. Not really. "What?" I couldn't have heard her right.

Rose gritted her teeth and continued, "I'm already happy that you came out to meet me today. How could I have the audacity to ask you to forgive me?" "Rose, let's leave it at this between us. I don't want to be enemies with you, but I also don't want to continue being friends," Shirley sighed and said, "Considering the many years we grew up together, I truly can't continue hating you. But you hurt me deeply, and we can't continue being friends either." Because we once knew each other, we can't be enemies. Because you once hurt me, we can't be friends. So, we can only be the most familiar strangers.

His voice was low and vulnerable. And I was honestly so done with the mixed signals and the confusion he was putting me through altogether. "Does this make sense to you?" I gestured to the space between us. "This, this 'friendship'?" "What?" He said almost breathlessly. "Because it doesn't to me, Dean." I told him honestly. "I've said this so many times but I don't just agree with a concept where being friends with your ex is plausible. I-It just isn't."

“Why not? Did I hurt you other than today? Trust me I didn’t do it intentionally.” I sighed and kept a hand on my hip to stop the pain. “You didn’t hurt me physically, you silly man. I... I can’t be friends with you because I have fallen for you. I love you and I know you don’t feel the same.” I saw his eyes widen with each word that I spoke. “Nathan if I wanted to ever have sex it would be with you and not with my abusive ex.” “I didn’t say that.” His fists clenched.

Suddenly I feel nervous. It’s not like he would try to pull something on me on the first day we met, right? And certainly not while I am dressed like this? But why did he inadvertently try to ask if I had a boyfriend? Maybe I should invite him in and see where it goes? No, that’s probably a bad idea... we are neighbours after all. How awkward would it be to have a one night stand with your neighbour and have to see him all the time. Bad Blair! It’s ok to just have guy friends without benefits too! I’d best just go home and do some work...

I won't be surprised if he does that, she's his ex-girlfriend after all it should I say, friends with benefits. The thought made my hurt burn with anger, if he doesn't care so why should I care? I'm beginning to like the idea of this trip, I'll enjoy it to the fullest and try my best to get over him. I might as well find myself another boyfriend and then file a divorce. That's what we planned in the first place, isn't it? It's over six months now and we'd planned on breaking up the marriage, I think I'll just go on with the plan.

"Well, thank you so much for saying sorry Tristan but don't misinterpret this reply, I hated you for what you did and I think it may take some time for the wounds to heal. You've got nothing to worry about, I have realized that chasing Tricia is very tiring so I decided to move on with my life.

I wish you the best Tristan! Don't you worry, blocking you never crossed my mind as I also wanted to become updated in your life. One more thing, please do not try to seduce or become friends with Tricia again, t
