How soon can you and your ex start hangging out as just friends?
My ex and I broke up about five months ago. Although we loved eachother very much and were best friends, we were both very unhappy with our relationship so we split. The brake up was messy and painful for us both. Now I'm over the hurt and want to be friends again, he does too, but it feels kinda awkward when we see eachother in public. On the phone things are fine but I just wonder could it be too soon to start hanging out?

I hae been in your situation many times. The answer lies in your heart. Chances are if there is an akwardness between you there are still some feelings that haven't been dealt with. Play it by ear, there is a chance that things will get better in time. There is also a chance that you are getting along on the phone because it is more like dating than just hanging out and this may be what he (or you) wants. If it is truly important to you that you remain friends talk it out with him, but first be honest with yourself about what you are feeling.
