He called me a little while ago while I was studying. I wasn't sure why but I didn't mind talking to him. He called me just to tell me about something funny that happened. That's a normal thing for him to do even before we got together.

It made me realize that he wasn't "just saying it." We really are friends and that he considers me a big part of his life even though it's in a different way. I really appreciate it. I'm very grateful that we ended our relationship on a good note and remained as good friends. That's how it all started, so why shouldn't it end that way?

I prayed for an end to my angst and God answered. I'll still wait around for him, but I won't feel sorry for myself anymore. My brother was right. I didn't lose anyone...things just changed a little.

Sure, I miss him. but I'm just happy to know that we can still be close. I mean I'm not over him...but im a lot happier feeling validated. i wanted him to somehow prove that we'd still be friends.
