Ok, so I went you with this guy lets call him Steve. And before we started going out, we were best friends. So Steve and I went out for almost 3 months. Everything was great, until we broke up. But before we went out he decided he didn't want to be friends with me anymore because he liked me in the past, and I hurt him. Despite that we were happy together, until we broke up. It's been almost 7 months and we don't really talk anymore. He has a new girlfriend now, who doesn't like me at all. (She thinks I still like him.) I just want to be friends again, without his girlfriend thinking I'm still into him.

Men aren't like women: the majority of us aren't quick to forget when we've been mistreated, and we aren't as quick to "be friends" with girls that we've dated, especially when there have been issues in the past. It's just part of our nature. If he's found another girlfriend and he doesn't talk to you anymore, then he's moved on. [ thequotablepatella's advice column | Ask thequotablepatella A Question ]
JustJessOx answered Monday June 8 2009, 6:14 pm: what you need to do is explain to steve that you dont have any feelings for him anymore and that all you would really love to be is friends again.
tell him how much you miss his company and how things used to be be clear and say you have no intentions of trying to get back and your not out to sabotage his relationship with his new girlfriend explain to her as well.
if he says no,well then hes not worth the time i dont see the harm in staying friends after a break up,espically if you were happy together during it and best friends before it.
he shouldnt want to forget a friendship like that and not speak to you and if he does well its truely his loss,hopefully he will feel the same and be missing you too.
im sure he will be =]
Hope I helped in anyway and things work out for you
