My ex wife tells people that we are still friends. How can you be friends after all that she has put me through? I have coined the term friendly but not friends to describe it.
Being friends with her would like be like being friends with the devil. She has cut me deep enough that even though the wound has healed there is a deep scar there that will always bother me. This has to be one of the deepest wounds that I have ever gotten too. Just he hear her voice or to read an email from her still brings me some level of discomfort, and maybe deep within the recesses of my soul, some pain.
The truth is that friends don't treat friends like this. Friends don't hang another friend out to dry and not give a logical explination other than we are just different people or I no longer feel that way about you. Those reasons are not the root cause, they are only symptoms.
So, my friends, let me be the first to tell you that the day that I consider my ex a friend is the day that I will consider the devil a close friend and on that day hell will freeze over. Bitter?, maybe a little but it is my progative to be this way after I have endured what I have endured.
Anyone else feel this way?

If you ever had true love, a piece of it will always be there. There is a lot of other feelings you will have along the way to recovery. But, if you are both mature, you can end up as friends... (or even somewhat mature...)
