Try treating your ex just like any other person you have light conversations with. Forget the past...stay in the present... just like you would talk to a stranger in line at the store... weather, traffic, general present things happening... you are having a diff time cuz you are not relaxed...(understandable too) but you have to de-fog yourself by putting the past behind you and treat him like any other general person... after some time im sure a comfort level will build and you will be able to speak to each other with more confiedence.

good luck!!

I had a boyfriend and we loved each other as friends very much. It took almost an entire year, most of that going weeks and months between talking or seeing each other, to be able to be friends again.

Getting romantic changes everything to great extents. You must allow for time to heal the wounds that your romance caused. You will be grateful for that time, because when one of you gets another boyfriend or girlfriend, you're going to want a bit of distance. New lovers is a jagged little pill to swallow, even if you haven't been romantic in a long time.

Now me and my ex are such good friends, he just went out for beer and pizza with me and my boyfriend. Just the three of us. He has a girlfriend now fior about a year, and I've been with mine for a good year. He/they hang out at our place for parties and whatnot. We just have fun. But when we kept trying to force our friendship on each other (seeing eachother a lot sooner and more often after the big break up), we were still just too close to the fire. We'd end romantic again together, hurt by each other all over again, having to start healing all over again. It was hell earth.

True friendship prevails. So don't be around the guy so much, make time to see each other maybe once every week or two. Just do your own thing for awhile and tell him that you do want to be friends but you both need time to grow apart and not see each other so much or force anything.

Being friends--true friends-- after a break up is a serious test in maturity. There can be no more sexual feelings for one another, no more jealousy. I've only been able to accomplish it this one time in all my 17 years of dating.
