Hi everyone! I was just wondering if there are any success stories anyone has about becoming friends with an ex especially if it ever seemed like it was impossible to be friends with them at first. 

I have an ex right now and I don't want to date him again, but I would very much like to be his friend. Everyone is telling me it's impossible, but I refuse to believe it. Things seem bleak now so any inspiring stories you guys have about being friends after it seemed more than unlikely would be highly appreciated and would really help to raise my belief and vibrations that my ex and I will be cool
