We broke up, but I don't want to be just friends.
About
We loved each other for four years. We knew each other too well, and we were too comfortable. The fluttering excitement vanished, but there was no hatred left behind. We felt more like best friends than lovers. So, we broke up. Not because the love ended, but because we could no longer tell the difference between love and friendship. — It's been a year since the breakup. We've become those typical(?) exes who give each other dating advice and cheer each other on for blind dates. Except there's one problem. Do Woojin is still the first person I turn to. I've tried to end this relationship several times. But in the end, the person I'm most comfortable with is always him.
