My h said he wanted to be friends. I agreed. But after a year+ of being seperated, he still doesn't know how to be my friend. He wasn't my friend in the last 3 years of our marriage, and he isn't my friend after we separated.
I just don't think he knows how. I've even told him he doesn't know how to be my friend. I've told him what my perspective of friendship is...a friend_______, a friend_______... He still can't or won't.
Oh well. He can say we're friends all he wants and he does. But when I'm asked I reply the truth. He says we're friends, but he doesn't behave that way towards me.
I have other friends. If H can't be a friend to me, then I move on.
