How long is the...

... "akward stage", if you wanna call it that, like after people break up but they are still trying to be friends, but things aren't exactly "normal" again.

My ex and I broke up just a few days over a month ago, and we are trying to be normal friends again, so we still talk on IM and in class and stuff, but we always run into that "akward silence" or something like that, where all of a sudden it just feels weird to be talking to that person.

So, I guess my real question is, for those of you who have tried to stay friends with your ex, have you two run into this "akward stage"? About how long did it last? Is this something normal to be going through after two people break up and are trying to get back to being normal friends?

Wow, that was really long, thanks for reading it and thanks in advance for your advice!

after my boyfriend and i broke up last year we didnt talk to each other for like 3 months. then ater christmas break we were pretty close. but we didnt talk that much still. but then we got really really close and then i hooked up with his friend and for some reason that made us even more close. and then the year was over and we went on summer vacation and then when we came back to school in the fall we didnt talk alot and then sometimes we would talk but not really and then he left the school. so im going to say, it all depends on you and your ex. for us it was on and off but for you idk, it will prolly be akward for a while but there isnt reeally a time limit.

Okay, thanks Kristy. I was just wondering about other peoples' experiences to try and see how things went for them, and to see if that would give me an idea on how things would go for us. Thanks so much!
