your two reasons that you have given me was quite correct cause this is the first time he got into a relationship with a girl. And his girlfriend is one of my friends, so his girl knows that him and I were close. will my friendship with him goes back to normal once his infatuation stage is gone? how long will it last usually? I really miss those days with him, can there other ways how I can repair this friendship/the gap which has grown between us that tearing us far apart other than talking to him?

I'm glad you got back to me and I'm happy to help you with any further advice.
The infatuation stage can last between 2 to 4 months, but I don't think you should wait that long to talk to him. It might further strain the relationship.
Is there some particular reason why you don't want to talk to him? Are you sure you just want to be friends with him?
Try this suggestion; invite the two of them and some other friends out or over for some fun. While there, mention to them that you are happy that they found each other and you hope it works out. Remember, you want to make her feel secure. Are you and she close?
Your relationship with him probably bothers a a lot since you were so close. It will also put him at ease and he will feel comfortable talking to you again.
Remember right now this is new for him. He has not forgotten you. Just be there for him when he needs you. In the meantime get out and have some fun with your other friends. Keep me informed.
As always good luck,
