Quick question, girlfriend ended relationship with me month ago because
our relationship had fazzled out ( loss of spark ). I was upset about this
however i moved on promptly and havent contacted her since while she
has tried to.

i know she doesnt want a relationship right now and there is no other guy,
however she is a model and a HB10, she did state she would give me advice
on other girls and still be up for fwb. - she is in the same friendship group,
same SPAM group, same course, same seminar no avoiding her lol.

my question is, if i settle for friends with her will i look like a stupid beta
who settles for less and how do i avoid that. There are pros and cons of being
friends with her - she knows all the girls in my university year and is quite popular,
but right now it is a no contact situation between me and her ( 3rd week).

If there are benefits for being friends with her then be friends with her. I mean benefits other than casual sex. I've always viewed that as being a bit needy, kind of strikes me that's for people that can't get a shag elsewhere.

Are there any downsides to her friendship? If she knows people that are potentials for the future then it can go both ways. She could screw it up for you or she could work to your advantage. Is she crazy or insecure?

Personally, I tend not to make much of an effort to be friends with ex's. Generally it means I have to give up more to be their friend than they do to be my friend. She's an ex for a reason. Move on.

Newsflash: it's okay to be friends with people.
