Well...
In my situation, my closest friends were pretty concerned about me while I was with my AXGF. And when things with her finally blew up after I had given her another chance, two of my closest friends wanted to kill me. My best friend was especially livid at me.
But, at the end of the day, our choices are our choices. And when dealing with friends, I've found it's best to allow them to feel what they feel. The closest friendships are the ones where we can be honest with each other. My friends have license to tell me when they think I've done something stupid, and vice versa.
You're in the middle of riding out the storm. Be steady. You're going to have good days and not so good days. For me, I realized I was fine when I was out in the middle of the Utah desert for work a mere three months after it blew up and completely comfortable with the idea of being unattached. In time, you'll get there, too.
