I love being around him and he is nice to talk to

My ex boyfriend and me are still friends after going out twice before. My friends tell me that if our relationship didn't work out the first two times, then why try again for a third time? I think I still love him, but I'm not sure. I love being around him and he is nice to talk to, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't like me anymore. I don't want to ruin our friendship by talking to him about it, because I treasure our friendship that we have. But I also don't want to have this feeling of the past when I spend time with him. What should I do?
VictorM's advice:
You should talk to him about getting back together. If you go on assuming that he doesn't like you anymore you will always be haunted you by "what if." Ask him and be sure one way or the other. If he's willing to try again, give it your best shot. If not, stop worrying about keeping the friendship because this friendship will bring you nothing but grief and pain. Sooner or later he's going to find a girlfriend. And then what? You're better off moving to new friends and drifting away from him.
