Really depends on how things ended. If the break up was an angry one, don't expect friendship from a Leo any time soon. If the Leo goes cold or distant, that's a sign that he/she could care less about a friendship and are creating space to pursue other options/ interests.

Once enough time has passed it may be possible to get the Leo back into your life, but it won't be the same. You'll never be able to get their full attention the same way as before. They may not be as warm or may always feel preoccupied.

If the break up is mutual or positive (which means it was probably initiated by the Leo), then friendship is much easier to maintain after a breakup.

It really depends on the situation of how the two broke up. But from my personal experience being a leo this is how it went.

Girlfriend 1 - Virgo - Dated for 2 years, broke up and didn't speak to each other for 6 months. After that we had an up/down friendship but the emotional bond was still there. Had sex a few times on and off. I have been mates with this ex for 17 years. We broke up due to cultural issues (small time indian mentality)

Girlfriend 2 - Leo - Went out with her a month after breaking up with girlfriend no 1 -that lasted a year and a half. We didn't speak for about a year. After that we started hanging out again and having sex. This ex was a friend before we started to date and I have known her for 30 odd years. We broke up for cultural differences.

Girlfriend no 3 - Taurus - Dated for 2 years and we broke up. I initiated this break up and we didn't speak for about 6 months and became friends with benefits until she got engaged. Since then I have never seen or heard from her until recently. She unblocked me and we had the occasional xmas, bday, new year text and that's it. She has no gone back to blocking me.

Girlfriend no 4 - Aquarius - A lot younger than me and we had an amazing relationship. There was a bit of an age difference and her parents didn't agree to the marriage so she ended it. Its been 6 months and we work together as well which doesn't help. Now this girl never gave me any closure. I tried to be the bigger man and she is acting like an idiot so now I don't want anything to do with her and will possibly never speak to her again.

With a Leo its our pride that gets hurt. But by the same token we aren't bad people or have bad hearts. If the break up is explained and we have a good talk about it, once the pain of breaking up subsides we tend to have an understanding based on the communication. With my first 3 exes we were still able to talk about the relationship years after it had ended and have a good laugh about things.

Bottom line is I think if a Leo is emotionally invested in you and it didn't end badly then chances are they will treat and ex well. If it ended badly and our pride is hurt then we tend to think with our pride and probably not speak to that ex.
