Ex boyfriend material (read the description)

So my ex boyfriend broke up with me about a month ago. He said he wanted some time for himself and he has been pretty stressed and depressed about his job and a couple of other things, so he needed some space, and I let him have it. But we kept talking, we arent in bad terms or anything, he's still very caring and sweet... I was wondering if it would be a good idea to see him again, as friends for a white, as he clears his mind? He says he wants to see me again, go out or cuddle and stuff, and I want to, i really do, i just dont know if its going to hurt me in the end...
