Your friends are protecting you whether you see it that way or not. You break up, stay friends, could hypothetically get back together - if they see a possible cycle they’re going to try to break it, or don’t wanna be the repetitive shoulder to cry on. I have no genuine advice for you, because I hung out w all my ex’s after breaking up too, but I was a cycle creator so… reach out to your friends, try to hangout with them more than with your ex
i know they are!! it’s just hard to feel so alone. i’ve only had three relationships in the past 4 years including this one however they’ve never treated me this way before. this was the first time i also didn’t ever tell them when i felt he did something wrong, so it’s totally different from all of my other situations. i spoke with my best friend and i think we’re more communicative about the situation now so hoping for the best. your comment made me feel less alone, i really appreciate you 🙂🩷
