So, My ex-boyfriend and i were together for 3 years, we recently broke up, but we still live together, and we have children, we have discussed many time us staying living together being that we have the children and have known each other for 10 years, he was my best friend before all this... How do you regain that friendship when you've gone through a relationship? All I want out of this is my friend back, love him forever... But it doesn't work for us being "together"...
