Breaking up and staying friends...
My boyfriend and I are thinking we may need to break up, but we want to stay friends...*if* we break up, I'm afraid it may not work out with friendship, but he says he'll be my friend no matter what...I want to be friends with him too, but I don't know how I'll be able to deal...any advice? Thanks!

I have to agree with xxkelsxx.
I tried being friends with someone that I was deeply in love with as he was deeply in love with me too, but we couldn't get it together so we opted to break up, and be friends.
He had another woman and I had another man and it caused drama in the new relationship, causing that one to break up too, because the ? of how can you 2 still be friends when it's so obvious that you 2 are in love still.
We started back dating again, broke up tried to remain friends, but still couldn't, because of feelings. YEARS went by (college in different states the whole 9)and still weren't able to remain friends due to feelings, history, and things shared (good and bad) we ended up getting married and divorced, still tried remaining friends, still didn't work, ended up back together and are now considering marriage b/c we can't be friends. It becomes a cycle. Either it ends up positive or negative there is no in between. We are now back together again because we realize that we can't be friends and we aren't testing it anymore- it has been 17 years soon to be 18 years.
Good Luck in your situation and I wish the best of happiness with either decision you both lean towards, sincerely

I know it sucks and I kow it seems like it would be easier if you could stay friends... but i have only ever experianced hurt from it. I wish desperatly that it is different for you, but dont get your hope up to high.
