My ex and I are still friends and we still go out and do things together: movies, museums, ziplines, kayaking, swimming with manatees, etc... We see each other 3-4 times a month and speak on the phone at least as much.
Lately the days/nights we go out have been ending in make out sessions which has me thinking this may all be leading back into the sack. Which is fine but it has me wondering why she felt we needed to be divorced at all. I didn't want the divorce, she felt we had to get one because she felt she couldn't be a wife to me anymore. She obviously still enjoys spending time together, so...
I'm confused.
If any women have any insight into what's going on in her head, I'd like to hear it.
Same with me...well we don't see each other because of the 1700 miles that separate us but the rest.
However a few months ago after not seeing each other for maybe 9 months she and I met 1/2 way to get me one of our dogs.
Things were never awkward and we moved right into naked in bed pretty quickly but she stopped me before things escalated to that point-of-no-return. Now she understands why I said we shouldn't talk or see each other unless absolutely necessary. We both wanted to but she understood it would be harder for her to move forward. It is EXTREMELY hard losing your best friend but it is very confusing to try and be best friends when you have a long sexual history and attraction. Relationships do not go backwards easily
My advice would be to get her there where it is her choice to say " whoa...this isn't going to fix anything. We were always good that way". Or maybe she will say..."we made a mistake lets get back together". Either way you have a solution.
The divorce was her call and I simply agreed telling her I was never going to be ok being done but if that's what she wanted I would do it.
I truly feel for you because there isn't much that is more confusing between men and women but I hope it works out for you both the way you want.
Good luck
This sounds much like me and my ex but she quickly cut it off. We are still friends and I do miss her dearly. The thing is, I enjoy not being stressed these days. Maybe she sees that too. If we were still together I would be so stressed out. I sometimes feel that she thought drama was communication.
People do grow and mature. Maybe she has learned something about herself. Maybe you both have matured.
I would not hurry to make changes.
