Is being friends with your ex a good way to get your ex boyfriend back? Honestly, it’s not. This is actually one of the worst things you can do. You may think there’s a better chance to get together since you get to spend time with your ex boyfriend, but this only sounds great in theory, but not in real life.
You may think it will work out in the beginning. You and your ex boyfriend still hang out, catch the occasional movie together, and even talk on the phone. So your ex boyfriend is still basically entrenched in your life. Then your ex suddenly starts talking to you about this great girl he met, how excited he is to be going on a date with her. And now, jealousy rears its ugly head.
This is not the way to get your ex boyfriend back…
Now you feel resentful. The whole idea of being friends with your ex is to get your ex boyfriend back, but now all you hear from him is how beautiful and smart this new girl he’s seeing is. And because you’re his “friend,” he even wants to know your opinion.
So you can see how being friends with your ex is certainly not a good idea. Maybe if you’ve really moved on and really want to be friends, then it’s okay. But since you’re pretending that you’re okay with being friends with the hopes of getting back together… well, it just won’t work. This is not the way to get your ex boyfriend back.
Keeping him comfortable is not the way to get your ex boyfriend back…
Also, when he feels comfortable being friends with you, do you think there’s any incentive for him to get back together with you? Do you think he’ll ever miss what the two of you had, when you’re always around and spending time with him?
There’s truly a lot of better ways to get your ex boyfriend back, and becoming friends with him is certainly not it. So don’t fall into the friend trap, as you may never get out of it.
