Yea, I try not to completely lose someone just because of a breakup. I'm still good friends with my first love from 5yrs ago. I see her every few months, next week in fact. Unfortunately, she's moving to Reno with her husband at the end of the month. As for my current Ex, I hope to remain friends. She moves as well (about 4 hrs away), here in a couple weeks. Obviously I wont see her very much but I hope the phone remains an option for us. When she leaves, it'll be up to her to contact me when she's ready. If I dont hear from her in a couple months, I'll probably ring her up for the holidays.
One note though.....One complaint my current Ex has is that I was friends with the Ex before her. Keep that in mind.
"Oh Lord it's hard to be humble, when you're perfect in every way. I can't wait to look in the mirror, cause I get better loking each day. To know me is to love me, I must be a hell of a man. Oh Lord it's hard to be humble, but I'm doing the best that I can." Mac Davis
