I say you stay friends but set some boundaries about what you talk to eachother about. Once those boundaries are set its pretty simple what u do next.....see below.

Go to Lagerfield (just down from Establishment) on a Saturday night and pick yourself up a Cougar - they're mad for it down there if your a well-dressed bloke between 21-30. You will not regret this, I look forward to a report on here Sunday morning.

Good luck Young Jedi, may the Cougars be with you.....all night.
 
Is this the voice of personal experience talking here, Mr C?

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

My ex and I were together for 3 years and I left him in November 2007, he was my first love and all that. We spoke for a wee bit after we broke up but then we both got all nasty and bitter and and we stopped speaking. We've since found new partners who we're both happy with and we are really happy for each other. I'm going through a really sh*t time in my life right now, last week was probably the worst and so I rang my ex and we had a big chat and I ended up going over to his flat and hanging with him and and his flatmate (who I know really well from when we were together) and it felt so good because he knows me so well and really understands me. Neither of us found it weird (our partners were pretty pissed off understandably, but they'll get over it) and it was really nice to catch up.
So methinks - give it a while, I've heard it takes the length of your relationship x 3 to get over it, but if you two are strong and know that you just don't work yu could still talk, just never BFF.
And in the meantime root anything you can, its good for the soul after a relationship, enjoy being single! Take care of yourself xxx
Great story, Hansel.
