Miss My Ex

He broke up with me Friday and we have been talking the whole time like nothing had happened and even had sex yesterday and from the way we communicated it seemed like we could be perfectly good friends with benefits because we still both enjoy talking to each other very much and were both comfortable with each other sexually as well. After we hung out he said it is best we don't talk as much but still wants to and I am hurt. We broke up because we both had a lot going on in our lives and he didn't know what he wanted (and still doesn't) I understand we are both grieving from the relationship because it was pretty serious but I don't want to give up my best friend when things get rough. I thought we had potential to get back together but I have no way of knowing what he is thinking.
