Yeah he dumped me, and he came up with really lame excuses. I think he dumped me because he felt smothered and I was with him a lot. I didn't give him enough space. But when I wanted space, he did the same thing (smothered me). I just wish we could try again. I'm afraid if I ask, that will possibly overwhelm him and put too much pressure on him. I think that if he wanted anything with me, he would at least try to be friends first. But that's not happening.
Since him and I have mutual best friends, I want to at least call a truce and be friends so we don't have to split our time hanging out with our best friends. I wish we could all hang out at the same time without any weirdness. So, if it is just a friendship, that's fine with me. I'm just trying to re-establish contact, even in the form of an acquaintance. But he won't let it happen.
