My boyfriend and I broke up a week ago. He offered me friendship, I tried not to accept it because I didn’t want to go back to the start when after all, we became more than that. My first ex boyfriend, before him and I became bestfriends after we broke up and that made my recent ex feel jealous, and I don’t want it to happen again. I was never awkward with anyone before, so I know that if I accept that friendship, it would be very normal. But then my friends were telling me not to accept it for now because that will only make me suffer since in his case, he’ll not lose me but in my case, i’ve lost him already.
What should I do?
