Is it wrong to expect or hope to remain friends with an ex?

Should I just assume that it can't happen, that despite my best efforts it will always be too strained to maintain any form of friendly relationship?

Is it better to just begin working that person out of my life and accepting that they won't be a part of it anymore?

When it's not a matter of making an effort to see the person, when we both share the same circle of friends and are involved in the same areas of recreation, it only seems natural to me that we move into the friends role. It only seems natural to me that all the closeness we shared isn't just wasted, that we turn it into something positive, like a friendship.

But now I'm not entirely sure if that's possible. Everyone else seems to be scoffing at this silly idea of mine...
...is it really that silly?


always.....

Its definately possible. Just take him out of your life for a few months. Nothing has to be permanent. Just take a fresh breath of air.
