Hola. Ok, I have a bit of a problem, I guess you could call it that, anyway. Yeah, so like, my ex boyfriend and I broke up last summer. And, we're just now starting to talk again. He has a new girlfriend, and I'm cool with that. I still care about him, but I feel as though I've moved on (it took me awhile). And, I just want to be friends. But, I always have to initiate conversation. Which, I don't mind too much. And, sometimes he'll talk a lot. Like, when we were dating, but sometimes he'll spend the entire conversation answering me with one word. It kind of frustrates me a little bit, because I would like to be friends with him again. He's a person I admire very much, in a friend kind of way. I tried to confront him about it, he just appologised and started talking more for awhile, but now he's back to one worded answers again. Am I bothering him? Or could it be, that he's just busy doing other things while he's talking to me? I know its something no one, but him can answer for sure. I would just like to know what everyone might think is going on with him. Thanks.

You said you're just starting to talk again since the break up last summer which was about 8 to 10 months ago.(I don't know exactly when you broke up). So there's a gap of almost a year of not seeing or speaking to each other. And that's a long gap. He'll need time to get used to the new 'just friends' relationship with you. He most likely doesn't know how to act around you just as a friend. It's especially difficult for him because he has a new girlfriend. My guess is he doesn't want to upset both you and his girlfriend. So, he is probably trying to find a middle ground. He won't want to seem too enthusiastic about being with you by talking a lot, just like when two of you were an item, but he also doesn't want to push you away by saying no to the friendship. So give him time and as you said it yourself ask him. It could turn out to be something totally different.

ask him if he still likes you if he does tell him you don't like as a bf but as a friend
