I want to start talking to my ex boyfriend again. We were a really great couple, and loved each other very much. We never broke up because something was wrong with us, it was for other personal reasons. So I don't think it's too much of a problem, but here is the problem (or what may be a problem), I found out he's engaged. And please, do not think I'm trying to break them up or even get back together. I just want to talk as friends, what do you think about this? Please, any and all answers would be appreciated! Also, I want your honest opinions, there is no need to sugarcoat anything. Thanks in advance!
Additional info, added Friday January 12 2007, 10:37 pm: By the way, I have talked to him and he said that he wants us to be friends, always. And he lives in another state, so I can't see him really.. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life? iloveaar answered Saturday January 13 2007, 12:30 pm: try to keep in touch with him, like through e-mail or Im since he's in another state, and also, ex couples cannot always continue beeing friends , even though they didn't brake up for something wrong, sometimes what makes them loose contact with each other is the new girlfriend/boyfriend, will you like your housband to still talk to his girlfirend? some girls will say no so first start slowly keeping in touch with him, then if nothing goes worng(his girlfriend your boyfriend beeing pissed about this issue) continue it =) good luck anyway [ iloveaar's advice column | Ask iloveaar A Question ]

It's probably not the best idea. I mean I guess, you could like talk to him randomly somehow.. & see what he says. Like, if he sounds like he wants to talk to you & be friends with you,then go with it.. if hes kinda cold, then I wouldn't bother.. [ holahayley56's advice column | Ask holahayley56 A Question ]

If you havent spoken to them in a while you could try askin them if they want to catch up over drinks or just give them a call. it might be awkward and uneasy at first but start of with simple conversation like "Hey how have you been, missed talkin to you i heard your engaged OMG! thats so awsome etc." The more you talk the easier it will get. i think its great you want to be friends again and i hope it all works out =] Love xXxPuNki-PiXiExXx P.S when your talking and the conversation starts to get slow and theres long silences try to bring up funny moments from the past about mutual friends of both of yours.
