i havent heard of many ppl being friends after longterm relationships. but we had been dating for 2 and half year or maybe bit less, and we stayed friends afterwards we had sex and stuff and now he is talking to a girl that he is maybe going to date,it really bugs me i thought i did not have feelings for him in that way any longer but now i am confused how can i stop having feelings for him it just suddenly came up and now i am so jealous and bit sad cuz i think she is way more fun and better then me he is the only guy ive dated. do you think its possible that we can stay friends if he goes into a relationship.we have broken up before and he slept with other girls i did not mind that at all but a relationship i dont know if i can handle that i really dont want to loose him i really i love him.

    They say friendship into love, but never love into friendship.... Its just a complicated subject and it all depends on your emotional maturity. Its normal to feel that way because he was your first boyfriend and guys were intimate and all but its just part of life. You should maybe need to stay away from him so you wont feel hurt or jealous and all that. Best of luck!

    Its absolutely normal.I think what you had with him is more than love relationship, i think you really loved him (natural love).Its okay to be jealous,happened to me too.But seriously i don't think you should stay away from him if he plays the love to friendship game well with you.You guys should stay friends even best friends if possible, who knows you can re-fall in love (if there's such word).

    It's normal for you to feel this way. Take it from me, after stepping away from my first relation which was on and off that lasted for a year. I didn't want to even see her face at all, but she still wanted to try and be friends. I knew it wasn't going to happen, and so eventually she gave up. There's just some things that you can't let go. Best of luck to ya
