[April Masini, your AskApril]

Since you’re newly divorced, and you’re very clear this is not a good relationship for you right now and you know that he has a tendency to talk you back into the relationship that isn’t right for you….I suggest you don’t contact him, and instead focus on you! Don’t mention any future plans because your divorce is too new and you have some anxiety issues to work on before you get involved with anyone else.

Since you’ve been friends for ten years, I sincerely doubt you’ll lose all contact with him, but for now, let him go, don’t contact him, and don’t talk about a future together.

I hope that helps — let me know how things go. And please follow me @AskAprilcom on Twitter and on Facebook at this link: [url][/url].
