Can You Still Be Friends With Someone Who Just Broke-up With You? by hotshotpeter(m): 2:53pm On Jul 05, 2012
I've noticed that whenever a girl breaks up with a guy she always adds these annoying words, "Atleast we can still be friends, right?" Personally, i hate it. There you are, all heart-broken and feeling like it's the end of the world and that person you've loved so much is telling you "we can still be friends." I need to get your opinion on this. Would you still be friends with someone who just broke up with you?

Its all good at the end really!
Sometimes God opens doors to give us opportunities,
Sometimes he CLOSES doors to protect us!
We may not understand when he closes doors when and where we wish he opens!!
Rise above the hurt & be friends,yes,because that particular
Door at that point in time needs to be closed.
At the point you realize this crucial fact,you rise above the hurt & its easier to move on.
So,when next a babe says "can we still be friends?"
Please say "with all pleasure ma'am!"

No. I delete their details from my phone, my Facebook, my email, burn all the pictures and everything that reminds me of the relationship.

I think it depends on the cause of the breakup and what the relationship was based on.

If we are together in biz and I still value your input and deals, I would not be stupid enough to delete your details.

I keep that side of things going on and erase the emotional part.That I am good at doing.

To speed that up, get urselves other partners to draw attention from each other.

But if you don't add any positive value in each other's life then go separate and forget the person completley

But how else does 'move on'? I am sure you have heard that phrase before, no?
You cant move on while stringing another person along,It's not fair to the new person at all.
Leave emotional baggage behind and start afresh. That to me is moving on.
Keep the non emotional attachment on.I don't know if you understand me.

Such friendship only take u guys back to bed n the s*x continue but this time with no commitment so u both end up cheating ur new partners. Have had such over n over and in must cases the girl we ask that the friendship should end when she realise she is getting nothing but just s*x from the frienship
Re: Can You Still Be Friends With Someone Who Just Broke-up With You? by 190: 9:16pm On Jul 06, 2012
I agree with cog1

God does tins in misterious ways
And d end always justify d means - he protects us in ways unimaginable

My ex said those same words 2me late last year
Here was my response

Let's say her name is Jane

Jane I have known you for well over 7yrs now
And we've bin dating for well over 6yrs now
During which, I have done pratically everything do-able for you
Including getting you an admission with which you are a graduate
And about going 2 serve
Before you felt you are now too big and started phocking ur fellow class mates and
Lecturers for marks - its all gud doe
But I don't tink its Ok we remain friends, I wouldn't wanna av anytin 2 do again wiv u
Cos I've come 2 understand that love doesn't exist and its just mare infactuation
You Jane has been a bad influence in my life and I must have bin so dunb not 2 c d beast
And bi.tch in u after all these yrs

Ever heard of d world - each 2 their tent oh isreal
I nid both of us 2 stay on opposite sides of th e lane
If u ever see me, don't greet me and I won't greet or respond if u ever
Say hi, either online or in reality, don't call my fones and don't add me on bbm
I hope u understand wah I'm saying

She nodded

Now go

And that was d end, I turned my back with heavy hart,took my leave
Last time I heard she was in an active relationship in PH wit a yahoo boy
Fast forward 2 5months later
I'm having d best of relationship God can ever bless a man
She is everything and has an IQ of a white woman and as sweet as a Nigerian woman + she is
From a notoriously wealthy family where money is d least of their problems
Hell cute 2 d core and recently I've bin complaining that she doesn't allow me do
Notin for her
Just 20 and a graduate with 2.1 and a scholarship 2 any uni in d world 2 read her masters and
Currently planniing a suitable country where we cud both link up

I think na 2 give am belle remain - rotfl
Juss kiddin na joke I de

Word of advice 2 guys out there
Never u - I repeat Never u date a gurl who on her own
Can't afford a square meal or a bottle of fanta
Else u become d fanta in her life till she squeezez d juice outta u
And finds herself an ice cold beer - always go for
D champhange popping types
