My boyfriend of two years broke up with me four months ago. He called it a "break" and said that eventually we'd get back together. The first two months of the break-up, we rarely talked, and when we did, we were both very much on edge and tip-toed around each other.
Now, we're back on very friendly terms and talk the way we did when we were together (nothing lovely-dovey... just goofy & playful, really).
My question is this: does he think of me now as just a friend, or is this a good sign that we're on our way to recovery?

Only he knows how he feels. Maybe you are in the "Friend Zone" maybe not. I would be careful and don't put expectations on anything. Whateva you were doing when you didn't have contact continue to do and don't be available all the time. Watch how he reacts.

Girl,
Like Kuulski said, only he knows how he feels -- So why don't you ask him what is going on. The two of you have been together for a while so I think it is safe. It is the best way to know where you stand and to know what direction you are headed in. That way you can know where to place your feelings. Nothing is worse than wondering -- ask him in a playful way at the right time and see what happens - at least you will know.

I'm in a very similar situation as you. And I find it really hard to, I get mixed singals all the time and when I came out and asked him he just said yes I love you and I want to be with you one day again, but you know what I'm getting really sick of this waiting game it feels like my life is put on hold and I think I need to make a decision weather or not I want to continue putting my life and feelings on hold, just be careful not to be strung alone for a VERY long time and then come out of it hurt and alone.
