Being Friends With An Ex Who Hurt You Novels & Stories

Funny how almost dying changes a person perspective of you. I wasn't sure if we would be friends but I knew going forward there would be no more hate between us. Greg smiled often when we chatted and I loved that I was making things easier for him. He was such an amazing man that I hurt so many times. I didn't even realize how I used him for so long. I promised myself I would make it up to him by being just as an amazing friend to him as he was to me. I sat by the pool with Layla by my side watching my beautiful family play together.

"So that's it then? We're just supposed to forget about everything we shared Ethan's voice was gentle. "No, Emily. I'm not saying that. I just want you to know that I never meant to hurt you. And I want to be friends, at least. Can we do that Emily felt a sense of sadness wash over her. She knew that she could never just be friends with Ethan, not after everything that had happene But she also knew that she couldn't keep holding onto the pain forever. She had to let it g "Okay, Ethan. We can be friends

I do not have many friends, and when I did, they all left me hurt. Makes me feel as if I belong to them, yet whenever I get out of their circle, I can see that they can work without me. That whenever they are hanging out without me, they seem perfect, as if my existence is just a hindrance to their friendship. I was hanging out with anybody, not letting myself get attached to them since I knew very well that the moment I clung to that feeling, it was only me who would get hurt in the end.

Not with everything already collapsing. She sat on the couch and I dragged a chair in front of her, my jaw clenched tight. “This is going to be painful. Close your eyes.” I wanted to pull the shard out quickly, before it got worse. She already hated me. And this? This would just add to it. I didn’t even know how I got over her friend so fast, my ex-mate. I really thought I would never move on, that the pain would stick for years. But now… all I felt when I saw her was a small flash of something like friendship. That was it.

I know I have blamed him for my brother's condition, but he didn't even wait, he just moved on to none other than the only friend I had; Meesha. ''You shouldn't be here,'' I said, looking away. Obviously, his parents never liked me because I and my brother were broke. But it was devastating that he never really desired to stay by my side when I needed him the most. ''We used to be friends too Kat,'' he stated what I hated to hear. You can't be friends with your ex when you are dating her friend. I don't blame him, I kind of pushed him away as I blamed him for my brother's condition, but he too never tried to make amends before.

"I know they trusted you, baby, they knew you wouldn't abandon your sister. How about Nigel?" "What about that jerk?" I asked her. "Did you forget that he is still your best friend?" "My best friend who hurt my sister," I said. "Baby I know this is hard for you because they are both important to you but that doesn't mean that you will let your friendship be destroyed. I'm not saying that it's okay that he hurt Kiara but what I mean is that we all make mistakes and it's part of a relationship to have misunderstandings and fights. I believe it will fix that in time,"

The moments were rare, but they were there and he was the person I shared them with. I didn't know what last night meant for us. Did it mean that things could go back to normal? Did it mean we could go back to being friends? It was something I wanted to consider but I was also afraid. Putting myself in that position again meant risking getting hurt. He had hurt me badly, and going back to being friends was giving him another chance to hurt me even worse. It was like telling him he hadn't hurt me enough. I would fall back, reduce our interactions and hopefully, he would take the hint and let things go back to the way they were.

And now that she has started spreading rumors, I don't think that our relationship can go back to the way it used to be before this whole misunderstanding ruined everything. “Sally, are you okay?” One of my colleagues at the club asked me because I was clearly lost in thought. While I was thinking about everything that has happened between Alicia and me, I was still trying to beat myself up as I was trying to remember if there was a time in my life where I hurt Alicia and I'm not aware of it. After thinking for a while, I still couldn't come to a conclusion because there was nothing I could remember when it comes to hurting her. Instead, I'm the one that has been trying to keep the friendshi

I would never know. But I did know that the storm had passed and only clear skies lay ahead. On the way home, my current best friend messaged me. "Hey, your cheating ex really got what he deserved. Remember when I told you I saw him kissing some pretty girl? I was so worried that you'd be angry at me for telling you." "How could I be angry?" I smiled as I replied. "We're best friends."

"See? I told you." I thought spending time with Reese would be really uncomfortable, but it's really not. He doesn't seem to hold my feelings for Ryder against me, and I think we might actually be able to be friends still. When I get a bite, he helps me reel it in, and it doesn't feel strange, it just feels like one friend helping another. That doesn't make me feel any better about hurting him, even if he wasn't in love with me. I still picked his brother over him.
