Going on the belief that he does indeed love you, then he should also respect you, and your wishes. Now, granted, there still may be things that he is incapable of doing. But he would at least give it a try.

I know that I had an incredibly hard time going from a relationship to being friends with one of my ex's. I tried. I tried very very hard. After a while (a month, two?) it was just too painful, for me at least. So I had to distance myself from her. Eventually (maybe 4 months after the break-up) we were something like friends again, but we were never quite as close as we had been before. And yes, I felt like I was waiting for her for a long time. Seeing her face, hearing her voice again would probably bring quite a bit of that back. If she walked in today, and asked for a favor, as a friend, I probably wouldn't hestitate to help. Could I trust my heart to her again? That's something I honestly don't know.

...quand il me prend dans ses bras
il me parle tout bas
je vois la vie en rose...

A poetic translation would be something close to
"When he takes me in his arms
He speaks to me softly
And life seems perfect to me "

1940s French love song - La Vie en rose.

Eyes that make me lower mine.
A laugh that dissipates on his lips
This is the unretouched portrait
Of the man to whom I belong.

(chorus)

When he takes me in his arms
He speaks to me softly
And life seems perfect to me (A good translation of "Je vois la vie en rose")
He utters words of love to me
Everyday words
And it touches me inside

He has brought a bit
of happiness into my heart
And I know the cause.

It's him for me, me for him, all our lives
He told me so, swore it, for all our lives

And the moment I laid eyes on him
Right then I felt inside me
My beating heart.

Nights of love that never end
A great joy takes hold
Annoyances and sorrows disappear
Happy, so happy I could die.

(Repeats chorus)

I can dig up the complete French lyrics if you want
