It's my ex's 25th bday today, and he's driving up to the country to spend it with his sister. Knowing i won't be able to send my present to him today I drove to his place last night to deliver them. I didn't want to call his house b/c his mum was there and I wasn't sure if he was home. I assumed he was out when he didn't pick up the phone, so I waited outside his place from 10.30pm to 11.45pm. When I finally called him again he said he was home the whole time, he came outside. He was very touched that I waited all this time to see him and give him his present. He hugged me (in a friendly way in the car) and kissed my cheek lightly. I think he could see that I was crying as I drove away. I already bought a watch for him as his pressie a month ago, but I thought i'd get him some chocolate and this book called "Snog - puppy's guide to love" which is a collection of puppy photos and phrases on love.
In my card, I wrote that I feel blessed that we are able to meet each other on this planet, be friends, then fell in love and shared our lives together. I told him i cared and loved him despite him leaving him, and I choose not to walk away, and would still love him as a friend. I really meant what I said.
I msg'ed him this morning to tell him drive safe, and whether he liked his presents. This is his reply: "I'm at car service atm, will drive safe." So cold and distant, and like he doesn't give a damn!
I know he's content with his single life as every guy his age is when they come out of a r/ship, but sometimes i feel he just stopped loving me. He still cares for me as a friend, but where did the love go? We were so in love, we were the perfect couple to everyone who knew us. Am I making a mistake and just hurting myself more and more for continuing to be there for him, when all he wants is friendship? When we first broke up, he said this was final, but then he said he is open to things in the future but sees us as friends in the next year or two.
I love this guy, and he was my best friend, he hasn't treated me badly ever in our r/ship or after we broke up. He loved me and treated me like a princess, except there were communication problems and commitment problems, also he felt I didn't appreciate him enough. Do you guys think he will come around after a few months if I show him that I can change and that I can appreciate him enough, and we can work things out?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
He left. Let him go. You cannot be friends now, if ever.
Let him choose the place. That's all it is, dinner and a a chat.
Why does one need a label for when two people meet?
Can you mix in having dinner with him sometimes with dinner with other men and women? (And maybe some more exercise after all that eating.)
By experiencing dinner with friends, you can use the same protocols when having dinner with him.
How will you react if he mentions that he is dating again or has found someone special and it is more than dating? Are you prepared to be happy for him? If yes, then probably you are his friend.
