Can my ex-boyfriend and I be friends? After a lot of drama?

My ex and I had been dating for close to two years, but we broke up because we both couldn't figure out how to make it work, it was getting so hard to stay together day by day. We never fought and when we ended it, it was because he didn't know what he wanted so he chose for us to be friends. We were on good terms.
A month later I drunkenly hooked up with one of our friends, I didn't tell him because I didn't think I had feelings for him or wanted it to be more.Another 2 months later my ex had a party and we hooked up there. Feeling guilty and realizing I wanted to be with him, I told him what had happened and he took a few days to digest it all and decided he couldn't be in a relationship with me.Two weeks later he had a new girlfriend and he wasn't on speaking terms with me because he felt betrayed. A few months pass and we were on speaking terms but I hooked up with his girlfriend... under the influence(s). She almost broke up with him that day and he was just furious. The next day after all the drama happened he gave me back a ring I'd left at his house a year earlier...we'd been broken up for about 8months at this point. Symbolism?
Either way to top this all off I'm still on speaking terms with his mother and she always took my side and wanted us to get back together. I always see him, because we go to the same school and he always looks at me, trying to act as if he's not looking, all the while walking with his gf. Which I don't understand, because we're not talking on in contact in any way.

But I wonder if we can be friends after all that? And if he still has a thing for me? I don't really miss him, but I miss his family and wish we could be friends so I could visit them and not lose someone I still care about as a person.
