About a year ago I left my hometown to go to college in a far away state. When I left, I left a fully invested relationship and we vowed that we would try and make it work long distance. This lasted about 2 or 3 months and then we ended the relationship. Since then we would talk or text every so often but nothing more than that. Recently, all communication has stopped, and I have found out that he has gone into a serious relationship with someone else. I am moving back in a couple months and I have the same group of friends that he does. I don't know how I am going to be able to be around him and see him with another girl. How do I act around him when I still have a little bit of feelings for him? I feel that its just going to be too awkward and that I'm going to have to find a different group of friends.

If you can give up your friends because your awkward what kind of friends are ye?

Things like this tend to work themselves out with time.

It will be awkward for a while, but after time it will become the norm.

Try not to over-think it.

If you weren't still harboring feelings,it would be much easier. It sounds like he did you wrong so I don't know why you still harbor feelings.He did just stop communicating right? How long was he in this relationship before he cut you off?

I have actually hung out with and was good friends with my ex husband and his wife and babysat their kids.We used to play cards and go out and play pool.I digress,sorry.The point is it can be done.

The thing is ,your both adults.People move on.I would not lose your old crowd because of him.That is just making yourself suffer.

Its sounds crude but I think your just going to have to get over it.Hold your head high and be cordial and know that he is the one who lost out.Have confidence and show it and be sure to look really hot when you go out! ;)
