Okay, thanks for the clarification there. Schoolwork isn’t suffering because of him, just an overwhelming course for all who’ve taken it.  
We’ve talked on the phone a couple times since yesterday, once to tell him that a friend of his from Georgia called me to get his new number, and he called me this morning on his way to his old house to pick something up for his dad. He’s mentioned a few times that he misses me and I said that even if we were to get back together I wouldn’t do it soon, and that he would have to make a choice between wanting me and wanting her even in the smallest sense.  
I think we’re content to be friends for a while, at least, I am.

I think. 🙂
