I broke up with my boyfriend, at first I was so mad at him and didnt want anything to do with him but after a day, I realized we've shared quite a bit and I can't stand not having him in my life, maybe not as boyfriend coz he was kinda an awful boyfriend. So I told him I want to be friends with him....and he said he will always be my friend. Is this really possible?

yes. i think so. i believe this is possible. easier actually since you both shared a lot of things already. you know each others deepest darkest secrets. but this ain't possible if one of you still clinging to the past. like one of you still has feeling for each other. there will always be the thought of "what-ifs" and that would hinder both of you to build a plainly platonic relationship.

yes it is. my guy and i broke up 5 years ago. to this day we are best of friends. we know eachother better than anyone else (even our sig. others) we have helped eachother through some of the hardest times. i owe him my life. he truely did save me. together as couple we were not so good. as friends, we are unstoppable. good luck
