My Lover Is Now My Friend...But I'm Still In Love

Yeah, it'll have an effect. I guess it's a "perk" depending on how you look at it. Unfortunately, it's not important in terms of her, it's how it's working for you.

I hope the going's good for right now.

Remember, no contact is not a trick, it's not a tactic, it's not a way to empower you. Sure, it does have that effect sometimes, but the real goal is to get YOUR life on track without her in it. It's difficult to if you aren't in no contact and having your feelings and life interrupted constantly.

There is a difference. Without a relationship there is no terms of you and her. It's just you.

I agree completely with this^. The rest has already been said. Good luck.
