Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

This is noble, but I’m sorry to tell you that you can’t really do it yet. You broke up less than a week ago and the feelings are too raw.
In a few months, you might have gotten enough closure to be friends, but it can’t happen both immediately and healthily.
I’m very good friends with one ex, but it took literally years after we broke up to be friends. I’m friendly with others (but we don't really care about each other, though we certainly don’t wish each other ill, as a gauge), and that happened much faster after the relationship.
