I think there are different opinions there. It is very fine line. When you are separated with no definite outcome, you want to stay friendly to keep up the lines of communication open. But you don’t want to be friends to the extend you were while you were in your relationship. WAS needs to miss this friendship and emotional closeness. I’m still trying to figure this out for myself. My H said that he wants to be friends, but he doesn’t show anything to support this. Unless friends for him means not talking to me for months.
