I am taking a survey to see what people would do if someone you were previously in a relationship with said that all they could give you "right now" is friendship.
Dump them or keep them?
If you could also please let me know whether you're male or female, I'd appreciate it.
Female: I say dump them but keep them as a friend as long as you know you'll never go back with them.
I have gone both ways; tried both approaches...it really depends on the particular person in question I guess...
ETA: just to briefly clarify, I have never actually "dumped" anyone on my end; what I meant above was if she decided she wanted out of a relationship on her end, but still wanted to be friends with me...

Move on and forget them. I used to be offered freindships back in my previous life when i was entirely too much of a nice guy, and i quickly learned to say "thanks but i have enough friends, thats not what i want from you". Outside of a straight up FWB situation, women keep their friends and lovers seperate and life is short as it is.

i agree. To me, saying all you can offer is friendship is a chickensh*t way of getting out of saying you don't want a relationship with that person...or that they're stringing you along unless no one better comes along.
Being "old school", I've never broken up with someone but kept them as a friend. May speak to the quality of some of the guys I was with that I didn't want to be their friend, but for me, we were either dating, or we weren't, and if not, I was moving forward without them.

Dump them. In 99% of cases, that really means, "I've met someone else." I'm male.
